Display Title of Another post based on Tags

    I have a website specifically with this page.

    It is category page that simply lists ‘characters’. What I would like to do is at the end of EACH character have it “Name” the actor who is playing the role.

    For example
    ******
    Buttercup
    The perfect soldier. […] out.

    Butttercup is played by ‘Actor’s Name Here.”
    ******

    Characters are setup as:
    – Category: Rogue’s Gallery
    – Tags: “Character Name” (specific to the character, i.e. Buttercup, DJ, etc.)

    Actors are setup as:
    – Category: Cast
    – Tags: “Character Name” (specific to the character, i.e. Buttercup, DJ, etc.)

    What I have not been able to figure out how to do is loop it so the incoming ‘post’ notes everything related and displays it.

    Any help would be appreciated it.

    Ok.

    I’ve actually got this mostly figured out. HOWEVER, for seem reason it’s repeating the very first post (see the linked page above).

    Here is my current code setup.

    <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
			<div class="entry-wrapper">
				<div class="header-wrapper">
					<?php the_title( '<h1 class="entry-title">', '</h1>' ); ?>
				</div><!-- .site-branding -->
				<?php
				 if ( has_post_thumbnail()) {
				   $large_image_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'large');
				   echo '<div class="tag-img">';
				   the_post_thumbnail('large');
				   echo '</div>';
				 }
				 ?>
				<div class="entry-content">
					<?php the_content(); ?>
					<?php
						$orig_post = $post;
						global $post;
						$tags = wp_get_post_tags($post->ID);

						if ($tags) {
							$tag_ids = array();
						foreach($tags as $individual_tag) $tag_ids[] = $individual_tag->term_id;
							$args=array(
								'tag__in' => $tag_ids,
								'post__not_in' => array($post->ID),
								'caller_get_posts'=>1
							);

						$my_query = new wp_query( $args );

						while( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
							$my_query->the_post();

 						if ( has_post_thumbnail()) {
 						?>
 							<div class="relatedthumb">
 								<a href="<? the_permalink()?>">
								<?php
								the_post_thumbnail();
								?>
								<br />Played by
								<?php
								the_title();
								?>
 								</a>
 							</div>
 						<?php
  								}
							}
						}
						$post = $orig_post;
						wp_reset_query();
					?>
				</div><!-- .entry-content -->
			</div>
		<!-- .entry-footer -->
</article><!-- #post-## -->

    Solved. Removed wp_reset(query); at the very end and it worked like a charm.
