(Can someone please pass us a tissue?)
2. He's a fantastic leading man
Having starred alongside some of Hollywood's leading ladies, including Jennifer Aniston, Rachel McAdams and Kate Hudson, Owen has repeatedly shown his ability to hold his own against some of the best in the business. And looks pretty damn good while he does it.
3. He made us laugh until we cried...
As rising supermodel Hansel in Zoolander. From his scene-stealing 'walk-off' with Derek, to his epic one-liners ('I guess you can dere-lick my balls, capitan'), Owen stole the show. And had us rolling on the floor laughing as he did so. Bring on the sequel!
4. We really want to crash a wedding with him
"I think we only use ten percent of our hearts." Back in their 2005 smash hit, Owen Wilson, along with his buddy Vince Vaughn, perfected the art of crashing weddings. And we want a lesson from the master.
5. He makes an hilarious on-screen buddy
We love ourselves a double act. And Owen Wilson has been a part of many fantastic duos. From Shanghai Noon with Jack Chan and I Spy alongside Eddie Murphy, to Starsky and Hutch and Zoolander with Ben Stiller, he is the king of comedy partnerships. And we absolutely can't get enough of them.
6. He's a man of many talents
Not only is he a comedy legend, he has also shown his formidable talent as a dramatic actor. Next up is his role in No Escape, an action thriller in which he plays a businessman trapped in a war zone with his family.
7. His time travels in Midnight In Paris...
Made us fall in love with the city of romance all over again. Woody Allen was so determined to get Wilson as his leading man for the 2011 hit, that he re-wrote the script to suit Owen's style. Now that's impressive.
No Escape will be in cinemas on September 4th. Book your tickets from September 1st.
