Jiang Wen is celebrating his 62nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-screenwriter-director Jiang Wen (Rogue One, Let the Bullets Fly, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 62nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Jiang, a cultural icon

Born Jiang Xiaojun in Tangshan on January 5, 1963, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Chinese history. Jiang'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 Wen hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jiang Wen as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 62.

Happy Birthday, Wen, you're the best!
