This is too bad. Not a great actor but reliable for journeyman performances in light comedies.

I thought Roy O’Bannon was an endearing role.

Citing sources, The National Enquirer and Star magazine

Their sources are probably little gray-skinned men from Pluto.

The “Butterscotch Stallion” tried to off himself? Yee gads! (Not my nickname for him. Someone else came up with it.

I like his work and I’m wondering if this isn’t an accident blown out of proportion and reported to the media as such. I like his brother, Luke, better though...hubba hubba.

This guy has everything in the world going for him and he tries to off himself.

Kind of like Curt Cobain. I can’t take all the money, chicks, drugs, attention and the easy life. I think I’ll kill myself.

He's also the voice of Lightning McQueen in "Cars."

First reports were that he slit his wrists and took a bottle of pills.

And he was thought to be the more stable of the brothers.

A little publicity prior to an upcoming movie release, perhaps?

Which one is he, the little blond or the tall brunette?

Prayers to Owen and the Wilson family. This cannot be an easy time for the family. We all should remember this instead of making fun of him “for having an easy life” as one FREEPER rudely stated.

OW is not the kind of guy I'd expect to try suicide. BTW, he was awesome in Zoolander.

This is one actor whom I can say I've enjoyed every movie character I've seen him play: Bottle Rocket, The Royal Tenenbaums, Zoolander, Meet The Parents, Wedding Crashers, The Life Aquatic, the otherwise unwatchable Big Bounce, You Me And Dupree, and Starsky And Hutch.

Thanks for the laughs, Owen. Feel better.

Owen Wilson researching a "slasher" flim? He is in the hospital. Radio was speculating that he slashed his left wrist and took some pills.

I guess he coudln't handle the breakup of his girlfriend Kate Hudson around Memorial Day.

Really sorry to hear this. I know many who have suffered from serious mental illness and I had a bad and debilitating depression at one point in my life. It ain’t pretty.

Owen’s first talent is as a writer, most notably “Rushmore” and “The Royal Tenenbaums.” Rushmore is my favorite movie by far.

Who the hell is this guy and why should we care?

Because FOXnewsies, the gossip queens of America, say we should?

I adore him...he is so cute and quirky.

Everyone wants to be wealthy and famous, but the wealthy and famous don’t seem very happy.
