Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on October 25, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Michael Soltis! From chasing aliens as Lt. Pierce in Spielberg's "Taken," to navigating the mysteries of Alcatraz and enchanting us on "Once Upon a Time," you've truly mastered the art of appearing everywhere—without ever aging suspiciously like some characters from Smallville.

Here's wishing you another year filled with exciting roles, memorable scenes, and fewer encounters with supernatural beings (unless they're friendly). May your birthday be more epic than any mini-series finale—and may your cake vanish faster than an escaped inmate from Alcatraz. Cheers to many more years of captivating performances and timeless charm!
