Do you remember the movie “Alone in the world (Cast Away) ”with Tom Hanks ? 20 years have passed and Mr Wilson is always present. Happy Birthday.

“Alone in the World” is a film that takes up the life of Tom Hanks, abandoned on a desert island. A difficult life, and not a single friend or living being to keep him company… except Mr. Wilson.

Mr Wilson came from a volleyball ball of the same name, on which the actor put his bloody hand. This imprint takes the form of a face. It will become the companion of life and the thread which hangs him up to the hope of being saved.

The manufacturer Wilson still offers for sale this famous ball named Mr Wilson since the release of the film. Today it celebrates its 20 years of existence. It will be yours on the site Wilson.com for 19.95 €.
