An Odd Coincidence (3/18)

The other day I was thinking about a couple of men (one a writer, one an actor) with an unusual pair of names. The writer has two syllables in the first name, one in the last, while the actor has one syllable in the first name and two in the last. Their first names are from the same base (like Bill and William), while their last names each contain a word which are exact opposites of one another.

Who are these men?
