In the year 2000, Wilson took on the role of outlaw Roy O’Bannon in the comedy Shanghai Noon. The odd dynamic between Wilson and co-star Jackie Chan proved comedy gold (pulling in a cool $70 million) that led to the 2003 sequel, Shanghai Knights. This time around the men didn’t fair so well critically, although Wilson did stand out for Desson Thomson of The Washington Post who explained, “Wilson has his surfer-dude moments of humor, but he’s doing his best with creatively dead material.”
