    Yes Julia Roberts has always struck as being kinda exotic looking. Could be all the surgeries she's gone threw Idk.

    Here are some actresses who played the role of a Scandinavian American.

    Beverly D'Angelo as Mrs. Hagström in the movie "The House Bunny". She's half Italian and half English, German.



    Felicity Huffman as Lynette Lindquist in the famous soap opera "Desperate Housewives". Her ancestry is English and German.

    I don't know if this counts, I just find it interesting
    But the fictional characters Marge, Selma and Patty Bouvier in "The Simpsons" are supposed to be French Americans.

    There are so many who have played Irish in film but some off the top of my head are Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Day Lewis, Pete Postlewaithe, Sean Bean, Alan Rickman, Richard Gere, Tom Berenger, Sean Connery, Billy Connelly, Leonardo Dicaprio, Cameron Diaz, Michael J Fox, Gerard Butler, Tommy Lee Jones, Mickey Rourke, Cate Blanchett, James Cromwell, Val Kilmer, Heath Ledger, Orlando Bloom, Heather Graham, Mick Jagger.

    That's all I can think of for now. Nearly everyone has played an Irish character some do it more convincingly than others.
