Life


Wilson was born in Dallas, the eldest of three sons of photographer Laura Cunningham Wilson (born 1939) and Robert Andrew Wilson (1941–2017), an advertising executive and operator of a public television station. His brothers Owen and Luke are also actors. Wilson's parents are of Irish descent.[3]


Career


Wilson has worked in the entertainment industry since the early 1990s, appearing in more than two dozen films. He has acted in three Wes Anderson films—with a main role in Bottle Rocket (1996)[4]—and other notable credits include Fever Pitch (2005), Idiocracy (2006),[5] Church Ball (2006), Whip It! (2009), Druid (2014),[6][7] and Time Trap (2017).[8]

Wilson has often collaborated with his brothers, both as an actor and as a director. In 2005, he and brother Luke directed The Wendell Baker Story, which starred Luke (in the title role) and brother Owen.[9]
