Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on October 03, 1978)

Happy Birthday, Christian! May your special day be even more magical than the time you first waved a wand as young Tom Riddle. While you may have played the mysterious wizard-in-training whose charisma captivated cinema screens worldwide, you've continued to charm us all with amazing performances beyond Hogwarts.

From theater stages to television sets—your versatility and talent never cease to enchant audiences. But let's face it; though you're accomplished in numerous roles, you'll always remain our favorite heir of Slytherin (minus any actual evil intentions).

Here's hoping your birthday festivities are unforgettable—and yes—even legendary enough for "You-Know-Who." Many happy returns!
