    You loved him, I loved him - but you're probably all wondering what happened to that young inflatable heart throb who singlehandedly overshadowed two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks in 2000's Castaway. Whilst he currently has no new projects on the go (personally I blame his "there's a reason all volleyballs are white" racist remarks) he DOES have an IMDB message board page, enjoy and let me know your favourite parts of his performance

    When they talked and told stories around the fire, heartwarming.

    Apparently the reason he never got any more roles after Castaway was his inflated ego.

    You do realise Wilson isn't actually his real name, right?

    I see some of his former co-stars are still bitching that his performance was flat, pfft typical haters - from what I'd heard he was always pumped and ready to go on set

    Agreed. Ego or not he put in a well rounded performance.

    Critics have said despite his recent setbacks he'll bounce back

    Uh oh, those "rumours" we've been hearing about, I'm sure his lawyers have been working really hard but just seen this leaked pic of Wilson and "friends"

    No way he can explain that to the wife, sicko

    His career has been overshadowed by the comparative success of his brothers Owen and Luke.
    However most critics would rate him as the best actor of the three of them. Seriously underrated.
