Til Schweiger is celebrating his 61st birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-director-producer Til Schweiger (Kokowääh, Inglourious Basterds, Rabbit Without Ears, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 61st birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Schweiger, a cultural icon

Born Tilman Valentin Schweiger in Freiburg on December 19, 1963, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in German history. Schweiger'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 Til hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Til Schweiger as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 61.

Happy Birthday, Til, you're the best!
