His Appearance
It is fair to say that Wilson has one of the most unique looks in Hollywood. This can be attributed to the shape and structure of his nose, which has a trademark bump.

What Happened to Owen Wilson’s Nose?
In an interview, Owen revealed that his oddly shaped nose came about as a result of two separate incidents. The first incident happened when he was in high school, as he inadvertently ended up in a fistfight.
It left him with a broken nose as he was punched right in the face. The second break occurred during a touch football game with a few of his buddies. These two incidents left his nose with a bent and out-of-place look. Rather than being a detriment to his career, his nose only served to expedite it.
