Ep. 89 - Owen Wilson (feat. Jim Evans)

Welcome to the Munsons at the Movies podcast. Each episode we delve into the filmography and impact of a randomly selected actor.

In this episode, we explore the life and career of Owen Wilson. Best known for his roles as John in Wedding Crashers (2005), Hansel in Zoolander (2001), Lightning McQueen in the Cars franchise, and his many collaborations with Wes Anderson, Wilson has become one of the most well-known actors in Hollywood. Joined for the first time by Jim of the Film Rage Podcast, we discuss his struggles in school growing up, his writing work with Wes Anderson, debate whether we like him more as a lead or supporting character, contemplate whether his voice lends well to animated roles, and tally how many times he says “wow” in his projects over the years. How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.
