Jet Li is celebrating his 63rd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Jet Li (The Expendables, Romeo Must Die, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 63rd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Li, a cultural icon

Born in Beijing on April 26, 1963, Jet Li's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Chinese history. Li'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 Jet hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jet Li as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 63.

Happy Birthday, Jet, you're the best!
