Tobey Maguire impersonates other actors.

The 34-year-old star - who is best known for his role as Peter Parker in the 'Spider-Man' films - believes he must have a familiar face because fans always get his name wrong, but he doesn't mind because he just carries on the pretence.

He said: "I'm been mistaken for so many different actors, it's just wild. I've gotten Jake Gyllenhaal a few times like, 'Loved you in 'Brokeback Mountain'. I've had that. I can't remember all of them, but Elijah Wood is another.

"When people ask me for my autograph and say, 'Oh you were so great in such and such,' which I wasn't in, I usually just sign the other actor's name and say, 'Thank you very much.' "

Tobey - who stars with Jake in new movie 'Brothers' - also claims he is so busy he's even started organising his life on paper and has been writing lots of lists so he can remember everything he's done.

The actor - who has two children, three-year-old daughter Ruby and seven-month-old son Otis, with his wife, jewellery designer Jennifer Meyer - told Parade.com: "It's just all a time issue. Recently, I've been putting my life down on paper, listing what I spend my time doing because I'm trying to edit some things out in order to make more time for the things that are important to me.

"It's kind of a process of self-reflection on how I'm living and spending time with my wife and children, which is a number one priority. But, I love my work as well, so that's very important too."
