Owen Wilson


 

Owen Cunningham Wilson (born November 18, 1968) is an Irish-American actor known for the diverse roles he has played and his slightly crooked nose (broken playing football as a teenager). Wilson has been dubbed "the Butterscotch Stallion" by the internet gossip site Defamer, a nickname which has widely caught on in the mainstream press. His mild voice and oddball character make him perfect for his many petty crook roles. Wilson has co-written three films with director Wes AndersonBottle Rocket, Rushmore, and The Royal Tenenbaums, and was nominated for an Academy Award in 2001 for Best Original Screenplay for his work with Anderson on The Royal Tenenbaums. Wilson's younger brother, Luke Wilson, is also a well-known actor.
