Jonathan Pryce is celebrating his 78th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-singer Jonathan Pryce (Game of Thrones, Taboo, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 78th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Pryce, a cultural icon

Born John Price in Carmel on June 1, 1947, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Welsh history. Pryce'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 Jonathan hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jonathan Pryce as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 78.

Happy Birthday, Jonathan, you're the best!
