Owen Wilson fans shocked after learning he has a famous brother

Owen Wilson fans shocked after learning he has a famous brother

Fans of the Hollywood star have taken to social media to express their shock

At this point Owen Wilson, the ‘wow’ man himself, is a household name but some of his fans have been shocked to learn about his famous brother.

Not only is the Wedding Crashers star’s brother pretty well known, he is also an actor.

Now while diehard fans can smugly say they knew this all along, a TikTok video that has done the rounds has indicated many movie watchers never saw the connection.

TikTok user Jemma McCarthy shared a clip and expressed her own shock at realizing that actor Luke Wilson was the younger brother of the Zoolander star.

McCarthy wasn’t the only one left stunned as thousands of people left comments expressing their own disbelief.

Captioning a short clip, she wrote: "TELL ME IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT JUST CLOCKED!?!?

"Luke Wilson from Legally Blonde n Look Both Ways is bros with the legend Owen Wilson... guess the name gives it away.”

One user commented: "But why does this make so much sense. I always thought they looked related."

Another remarked: "When they’re not standing next to each other I'd never have a clue but together I could see it."

A third added: “They always gave the same vibes I don’t know why I ain’t think to look them up."

Yes, 52-year-old Luke is the younger brother of Owen, who is 54.

As well as Legally Blonde and Look Both Ways, he's also featured in the likes of Charlie's Angels, Anchorman, and Blades of Glory.

However, some social media users insisted that it was obvious the pair were related with some going as far how McCarthy couldn’t put it together based on how similar they looked.

“Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, same nose, similar voices. Not trying to sound mean but I found out since Luke’s That 70s Show day,” one user commented.

"But why does this make so much sense. I always thought they looked related,” a second said.

“Thought it was obvious they were related. Same surname and they look like each other," another wrote.

The pair also have another brother, 59-year-old Andrew.

"Everyday I’m surprised by people finding out things I’ve always known.”

Some commenting even began mocking McCarthy and wondered how she would react after finding out there is another brother, who just so happens to be an actor as well.

Andrew - the eldest, aged 59 - has been working in the business since the '90s, featuring in the likes of Bottle Rocket, Fever Pitch and Idiocracy.

He and Luke also directed the 2005 comedy The Wendell Baker Story, which starred the youngest and middle Wilson brothers.
