  Is Asa Butterfield secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Asa Butterfield is celebrating his 29th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Asa Butterfield (Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, Ender's Game, Hugo, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 29th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Butterfield, a cultural icon

Born Asa Maxwell Thornton Farr Butterfield in London on April 1, 1997, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in English history. Butterfield's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Asa hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Asa Butterfield as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 29.

Happy Birthday, Asa, you're the best!
