Happy birthday, Gemini!
The halfway mark of the year brings Gemini season. With a symbol of twin and element of air, Gemini’s are a fearless sign of the zodiac. Their extroverted and curious nature has Gemini’s always ready to try something new.
Like their fellow air signs Libra and Aquarius, Gemini’s are known as the thinkers, communicators, and doers of the zodiac. They are very social, expressive, and charming individuals which makes it a no-brainer for many to find themselves in the entertainment industry.
On the contrary, the sarcastic Gemini can be seen as superficial and fidgety people with impulsive and impractical tendencies. Gemini season runs from May 21 through June 21 and many of your favorite celebrities fall in that time frame. Below are 12 movies or TV shows you can stream starring Gemini actors.
