OWEN WILSON (Lightning McQueen) gives a fine-tuned comedic performance as the voice of a hotshot rookie race car that learns to get his kicks on Route 66.
Wilson has made his mark in Hollywood as both an actor and writer for feature films. Last year, the actor had audiences in hysterics with his antics in the mega-hit comedy, “Wedding Crashers,” which became the sixth biggest film of the year. Among his most popular roles, he has twice played the character of Roy O’Bannon, the most laconic gunman in the Old West in the hit Touchstone Pictures/Spyglass Entertainment features “Shanghai Noon” and “Shanghai Knights.”
Wilson has had long-running creative collaborations with both his brother Luke and writer/director Wes Anderson. He co-wrote and starred in Anderson’s first film, “Bottle Rocket,” as well as co-writing and co-executive producing his second feature “Rushmore.” “The Royal Tenenbaums,” which he also co-wrote and starred in, earned him and Anderson nominations for an Academy Award® for Best Original Screenplay.
Wilson’s additional acting credits include “The Cable Guy,” “Armageddon,” “Permanent Midnight,” “Breakfast of Champions,” “Meet the Parents,” “Zoolander,” “Behind Enemy Lines,” “I Spy,” “Starsky and Hutch,” “Around the World in 80 Days,” and “Meet the Fockers.” His upcoming films include the comedy “You, Me and Dupree.”
