Fans of Owen Wilson were shocked to find out that he has a famous brother.
The Loki actor, who is 53 years old, is one of three kids. Both of his siblings work in the business, and his younger brother is also well-known.
Jemma McCarthy’s (@jemmamccarthy_) TikTok of her reacting to photos of the Cars actor’s famous brother or sister went viral.
Amazingly, 1.9 million people have now watched the video.
She wrote next to the video:
I was today years old when I realised this guy is Owen Wilson’s brother.
See Owen Wilson walk the red carpet at the premiere of Secret Headquarters.
Tell me I’m not the only one that just clocked?
Luke Wilson, 51, played roles in the movies Legally Blonde, My Super Ex-Girlfriend, and Old School.
Fans were so shocked that they rushed to the comments. One person wrote:
Now I know why he looks so familiar.
Never thought about them being brothers!
A second person asked:
How did I not realise?
Why does this make so much sense? I always thought they looked similar,
added a third.
A fourth added:
Oh my God that’s crazy, I didn’t even realise.
OK I’m shocked but not at the same time,
added another.
Some people, though, didn’t seem to be as surprised. They seemed to have known about the famous siblings for a long time.
One commented:
Girl what?! Everybody knows they are brothers, they talk exactly the same!
Another wrote:
Am I really old? I thought everyone knew this.
A third said:
How did y’all not know this? Me and my friends used to call him ‘the hot one’.
Luke has had big shoes to fill, but that hasn’t stopped him from making his own way in the business.
He is best known for playing Emmett in Legally Blonde. A law student who falls in love with Reese Witherspoon’s iconic character, Elle Woods.
Luke has also done well in some movies that aren’t as well-known, such as Henry Poole Is Here, Death at a Funeral, and The Goldfinch.
Andrew, who is 58 years old and the oldest of the three Wilson brothers, is also a successful actor and director in his own right.
He has been in movies like Whip It with Drew Barrymore, Fever Pitch with Jimmy Fallon, and Time Trap, which came out in 2017.
Andrew has been in a few movies with his famous actor brothers, like Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, and The Royal Tenenbaums.
Andrew and Luke worked together on the science-fiction comedy Idiocracy in 2006. The movie is about a guy who is used as a test subject for a secret hibernation project.
All three brothers helped make “The Wendell Baker Story” the year before.
Andrew co-directed the movie with Luke, who also starred in it with Owen.
The three siblings grew up in Dallas, Texas, and are often seen in the front row of movie premieres cheering for each other.
Robert A. Wilson is a well-known TV director, and Laura Wilson, who is 83 years old, is a well-known photographer.
In 2017, Robert died at the age of 75. It had been 54 years since they got married.
