Solved

how to credit two actresses who play the same character?

How do I accurately credit two actresses who play the same character? I saw that I am supposed to put a slash somewhere but do I put a slash after the character name on each actresses line? Thank you

Hi, tcosta:

No, you're supposed to put slashes when a same actor plays two or more characters.

For instance, James McAvoy in Split (2016):

On the other hand, when a same character is played by two or more actors, the character name is added to each of them. No slashes are needed, unless one of the actors also plays other characters.

For instance, both twin sisters Lisa Blair and Michelle Blair played Mary, the baby, in 3 Men and a Baby (1987):

Hope it helps!
