Thandie Newton is celebrating her 53rd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation.

Popular actress Thandie Newton (The Pursuit of Happyness, Mission: Impossible II, Westworld, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 53rd birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Newton, a cultural icon

Born Thandiwe Nashita Newton in London on November 6, 1972, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in English history. Newton's not just a great actress, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Thandie hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Thandie Newton as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 53.

Happy Birthday, Thandie, you're the best!
