Let's make this birthday one to remember.

68 years old (Born on January 15, 1957)

Happy Birthday, Mario Van Peebles! From directing the groundbreaking "New Jack City," you've given us iconic moments that still have fans quoting lines and rocking those classic '90s vibes. Your talent behind (and in front of) the camera has truly stood the test of time—proving you're not just a filmmaker but an enduring cultural legend.

Whether it's your powerful storytelling or effortlessly cool style, you continue to inspire generations with creativity that's as fresh today as ever before. Here's hoping this birthday brings more success—and fewer Wesley Snipes-style villains—to tackle on set!

Cheers to another year being timelessly awesome!
