Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on November 06, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Ethan Hawke! From inspiring us to seize the day in "Dead Poets Society" to captivating audiences with your intense performances in films like "Training Day," you've truly mastered the art of making every role unforgettable. Your ability to portray complex characters has left a lasting impression—though we're still waiting for you to teach us how standing on desks can solve life's problems.

Recently, your remarkable work behind and in front of the camera continues proving that talent only gets better with age. Here's hoping this birthday brings as much excitement as your career—and fewer poetry recitations at dinner parties. Carpe diem indeed!
