Let's make this birthday one to remember.

35 years old (Born on February 08, 1990)

Happy birthday, Ben Schnetzer! From your dramatic appearance on Law & Order—because nothing proves acting chops quite like being interrogated by detectives—to adding suspense in Happy Town, you continue to captivate us on-screen. Clearly, nobody delivers a line or survives crime scenes quite like you do.

While these roles painted you as mysteriously compelling, your star continues shooting upward with every project. Here's hoping this year brings even more thrilling screen moments (minus the fictional fatalities). Enjoy a spectacular day—and may there always be cake around when someone inevitably recognizes you from that one Law & Order episode!
