Let's make this birthday one to remember.

52 years old (Born on January 08, 1973)

Happy Birthday, Jim Threapleton! Another year older and wiser—though as a film director, we know you're eternally youthful behind the camera. Your knack for storytelling continues to captivate audiences; your recent projects have reminded us all why cinema is truly magical. Whether it's crafting compelling narratives or directing scenes that leave viewers both laughing and reflecting deeply, you've certainly mastered the art of filmmaking.

Here's hoping this birthday brings you plenty of cake (and minimal retakes)! May your next project be even more successful than the last—and may critics always praise you louder than any on-set megaphone ever could. Cheers!
