Question

What's the name of the volleyball companion in "Cast Away"?

Correct Answer: Wilson

(Source)

To Chuck Noland, Wilson was more than just a ball, he was the best friend that kept him sane (don't question it). After crashing in the Pacific, Tom Hanks’s character paints a face on the volleyball and talks to it for years like it’s a teammate. So when Wilson floats away during a storm, it hits harder than most human deaths in film. It's both deeply sad and weirdly charming, which kinda sums up the entire movie.
