Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on July 27, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau! From immortal detective John Amsterdam to the charmingly complicated Jaime Lannister—your characters always seem to have nine lives. Thankfully, unlike your Game of Thrones counterpart, you've managed to keep both hands intact and avoid any awkward family reunions!

Whether you're solving mysteries in New York or navigating Westerosi politics (and dragons), you never fail to captivate us with charisma and wit. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer sword fights and more cake slices—and may your celebrations be as legendary as Jaime's redemption arc. Cheers to another year of epic adventures on-screen and off!
