Sam Neill is celebrating his 77th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Sam Neill (Jurassic Park, The Piano, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 77th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Neill, a cultural icon

Born Nigel John Dermot Neill in Omagh on September 14, 1947, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in history. Neill'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 Sam hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Sam Neill as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 77.

Happy Birthday, Sam, you're the best!
