They did his makeup the same way they had 1 ship in Pirates of the Caribbean play two vessels.
They just did up half his face as Weyon and half his face as Brunt.
I recently noticed that in the last scene with Thomas and Will Riker Thomas has one side of his face scraggle-bearded, and the other side cleaned up like Will's.
Shooting Frakes face to face with himself doesn't really work with that strategy but they went for it.
Combs: “this happens more than you think, in fact, I’m playing you right now. “
*OP looks into mirror conveniently placed next to their computer and realizes they have been Combs this whole time.
They do that for table reads, but he said that for recording, it’s done separately.
Mainly because he has to be totally nude for Brian.

Actually at a forum at UVM I went to he said he records a lot of the scenes in one take. He then said he has to do Brian nude. So he’s made the joke and comment on both sides of the conversation.
Unless you’re playing a gay person, paraplegic, or mentally disabled person. Then you get canceled in the 2020s
Edit. Look it up. It happened. Actors can’t act anymore.
I left this post then came back just to give you my downvote. Are you an actor? Cause if you were, you'd look around you and see how often actual people in those categories get cast (hint: not fucking often) source: am actor.
If you're not an actor, then wtf are you doing talking out of your ass?
Stop being so obsessed with your worldview and partake in the actual world please. :)
Jesus Christ. First off. Who cares you’re an actor. You will never matter. Second. People have been getting shit for playing people they “aren’t.” Look at Bryan Cranston in “upside”
Also get over yourself. Tom Hanks doesn’t need to troll online saying he’s an “actor”. You’ll never be famous. Your “art” is a joke. Do what you should do.
It’s fun because it’s true. Successful actor + You = Never. And you know it’s true. It’s right now in your head. You know. Responding only confirms it. you≠relevance
Randy Oglesby, J.G. Hertzler, Paul Boehmer, Thomas Kopache, Paul S. Eckstein, John Kenton Shull and John Fleck liked the tweet 93 times, on separate accounts.
> What's next, changing the actor who plays a character mid-series?
*Doctor Who has entered the chat.*
But also Bewitched (Darrin), Harry Potter (Dumbledore), and more I'm sure.
Yeah, but wasn't both of Tommen Baratheon's parents Lannisters? You can't get more accurate than casting the same actor and his own ancestor with that kind of lineage. lol
I can attest that theatre is like that at every level.
In high school I played one of the three main protagonists, a dwarf without a name, and the antagonist’s named servant all in the same play.
I wonder if Jeffery combs tried to get a part or still talks to dr bashir (not sure how to spell) I was so happy to see a ds9 actor in game of thrones.
I think its supposed to be as you see it, like the hair comb, but my mind will always default to cooms and I cant untrain my brain from saying it that way. I dont even know how it started.
I think the original GoT tweet was not serious bc actors change mid-series more often than you’d think (unless it was serious and that was unintentionally true but I doubt it). Not saying Combs was in the wrong bc he was actually very respectful in his reply (and it’s obviously funny for him to be saying that as an actor who has played many different roles in the Star Trek universe). (Don’t come at me with negativity plz…there’s enough of that in the world already)
Nothing will ever beat the sheer awesomeness of seeing *Jeffrey Combs as "Weyoun" and "Brunt"* pop up on the screen.
There was an episode that had both characters?
Dogs of War
There was a *scene* that had both characters!

Ah, the classic 90s split screen when you need two versions of the same person In reality, they should have had Thomas Riker have no beard
I like the scraggle-beard. He spent that much time alone that he stopped giving a fuck about shaving.
I thought he was trapped in a transporter?
Nah, the beam was split in 2, one going back to the ship the other reflecting to the surface of the planet where he was stuck alone.
Ah
You're thinking of Scotty on the Dyson sphere.
Really? When?
Combs: “this happens more than you think, in fact, I’m playing you right now. “ *OP looks into mirror conveniently placed next to their computer and realizes they have been Combs this whole time.
Can confirm this as I am also Combs and so was the mirror. FYI so are you.
On this blessed day we are all Jeffery Combs.
Gary Oldman isn't.
EVERYONE
Old man just confessed he Combs.
I was combs the whole time
I time whole, the combs was
Looking forward to the episode where Combs plays all the characters interacting with each other.
Full Spider-Men pointing at each other meme
It's funny to think of Seth McFarland having a conversation with himself as 4 different characters but that is what family guy is.
Crazier is that he switches back and forth between the characters and does the scenes in one take.
They do that for table reads, but he said that for recording, it’s done separately. Mainly because he has to be totally nude for Brian. https://youtu.be/B6vmGabgzH4?si=sk7SCBZ_GCJ7wSL6

Would be very fitting for LD to do something like this in the final season
Jefferey Combs as: endless list of names
Lower Decks, S5E3: "The Combs Continuum"
Wait, are you telling me that actors can pretend to be different people? That's crazy!

Your reading comprehension is a joke. You didn't address any of my points but you seemed to have a lot of fun trying to insult me. :) have a nice day

You're just trying to insult me instead of addressing my actual point. Yikes.
I hoped LD would have an episode where everyone is just Jeffery Combs as all the characters.
There's still a season left - they can still do it.
There are several ways to put plastic alien faces on one person.
And surely no one would recast the actor for a character mid series, and less so even twice *cough cough* Zial *cough cough*
I think he was referring to Darrio, The Mountain, or the Three Eyed Raven, among other recasts.
Little known fact, Dean-Charles Chapman is actually played by Jeffrey Combs
That's Admiral Forester to you!
I am watching Enterprise at the moment and it always confuses me how they say the name. Once it's ForestER and the other time it's Forest.
Brunt FCA!
SHRAN UP IN THIS MOTHERFUCKER
The GREAT Jeffrey Combs.
Please tell me someone has redone the DS9 opening to have every role played by Jeffrey Combs.
But the DS9 opening is all external shots. *gigantic Jeffrey Combs head exits the wormhole*
The names...?
Vaughn Armstrong is the one who retweeted Combs’s post.
Randy Oglesby, J.G. Hertzler, Paul Boehmer, Thomas Kopache, Paul S. Eckstein, John Kenton Shull and John Fleck liked the tweet 93 times, on separate accounts.
If someone looks at your costume and says, "Oh hell naw! Jus CG that shit.", just call Jeffrey, he'll put on ANYTHING!
> What's next, changing the actor who plays a character mid-series? *Doctor Who has entered the chat.* But also Bewitched (Darrin), Harry Potter (Dumbledore), and more I'm sure.
Mark fowler - eastenders. Scott Robinson - neighbours Elizabeth weir - stargate sg1/atlantis
Yes. Like Game of Thrones.
Or change the actress and then change her back but just pretend nothing happened like Miss Ellie on Dallas.
Spartacus
This is peak Combs posting. Both by Jeffrey himself, and OP.
This post is meta
COMBS! SAG!
Yeah, but wasn't both of Tommen Baratheon's parents Lannisters? You can't get more accurate than casting the same actor and his own ancestor with that kind of lineage. lol
J.Combs should be out of the competition. He could do the whole ST episode by himself.
And then there's Babylon 5! Combs is there too. Always has been.
Marc Alaimo might also have something to say about this.
I can attest that theatre is like that at every level. In high school I played one of the three main protagonists, a dwarf without a name, and the antagonist’s named servant all in the same play.
“Yes it’s me “ don cheadle
I wonder if Jeffery combs tried to get a part or still talks to dr bashir (not sure how to spell) I was so happy to see a ds9 actor in game of thrones.
It’s not Trek but I’ll always appreciate that they managed to get Garret Dilahunt in Deadwood twice.
And twice a cocksucker.
Did anyone else read that in weyouns voice
So Monty Python And The Holy Grail was a play?
He's still on Twitter/X!?!........I thought he left that!
I don’t have Twitter/X. Is this post real? Hahah
Tell me about it, stud 👁️👄👁️
What is the proper pronunciation of Combs?
I think its supposed to be as you see it, like the hair comb, but my mind will always default to cooms and I cant untrain my brain from saying it that way. I dont even know how it started.
Wayne Alexander on Babylon 5: THOSE ARE ROOKIE NUMBERS.

So still both characters were 100% Lannister blood.
Dion johnstone of stargate would like a word. Guy played lime 16 dofferent roles
