Let's make this birthday one to remember.

85 years old (Born on January 22, 1940)

Happy Birthday to the legendary John Hurt! From your unforgettable role as Kane in "Alien," you've taught us all a valuable lesson: never lean too close to mysterious alien eggs. Your iconic chest-bursting scene still makes us jump—and laugh nervously—every time we watch it.

Beyond space horrors, your incredible versatility has given us timeless performances—from "The Elephant Man" to wand-maker Ollivander in "Harry Potter." You've captivated audiences with depth, charm, and wit. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with joy (and no surprise guests bursting through the cake). Cheers to you, John—may your legacy continue inspiring generations!
