Owen Wilson stepped into the public’s eye with the ’90s movies Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, and Armageddon, among others. He was a hit sensation, starring in a number of comedies in the early ‘2000s such as Shanghai Noon alongside Jackie Chan (which grossed almost $100 million worldwide).

Wilson was hilarious in 2005’s Wedding Crashers, opposite Vince Vaughn, and the movie grossed $200 million, just in the US alone. In 2008, he starred in the adorable movie Marley & Me opposite Jennifer Aniston, which did very well worldwide. Wilson, at his prime, was a crush for many women around the world. His long blonde locks and good looks gave him a “surfer boy” look that he couldn’t shake off. Owen dated Sheryl Crow after meeting her in 1999, on the set of the film The Minus Man. He has three children with different mothers and never got married.
