Let's make this birthday one to remember.

45 years old (Born on April 25, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Samuel Barnett! From dazzling audiences as Posner in *The History Boys* to captivating us with every layered performance since, you've certainly mastered the art of stealing scenes and hearts—usually at the same time. Truly, your ability to effortlessly transform characters into unforgettable figures makes one wonder whether you're secretly attending a perpetual drama class from another dimension.

Here's wishing you another year packed full of applause-worthy achievements—and perhaps fewer awkward stage entrances (though we must confess those are memorable too!). Keep charming audiences worldwide; we're all still happily "history students" learning our acting lessons directly from you.
