It's been ruled that two incarnations of the same character across different continuities only count as an example of Alternate Self if the two incarnations meet and interact or at least have each others' existences acknowledged within the same work. Also, it's honestly a huge stretch to consider two completely different characters from loosely connected works to be alternate counterparts of each other just because they happen to be played by the same actor.


* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/ArrowverseGothamCityCitizens Earth-Prime]] as Diane Moore.



* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/ArrowverseCentralCityCitizens Earth-Prime]] as Matthew Kim.



* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/DCEUMinorVillainsAndCriminals an undesignated Earth]] as Jesse Kane.

* AdaptationDyeJob: Only time will tell if she gains it, but Abby on the series doesn't have her iconic white hair and is portrayed with Creator/CrystalReed's natural dark brown hair.
