Let's make this birthday one to remember.

87 years old (Born on July 18, 1938)

Happy Birthday, Paul Verhoeven! May your day be filled with more excitement than RoboCop's first patrol and fewer surprises than Quaid’s vacation in Total Recall. Your visionary storytelling has given us unforgettable moments—whether it's Murphy reclaiming his humanity or Arnold Schwarzenegger questioning reality on Mars.

Your films continue to thrill audiences decades later; clearly, you've mastered the art of cinematic immortality better than any cyborg could dream. Here's hoping this birthday brings you joy as epic as your legendary action sequences—and may all future adventures remain firmly under control (unlike certain vacations). Cheers to another year of brilliant filmmaking!
