Celebrity birthday highlights for September 25, 2025:

• Actor Michael Douglas (1944) is the rare double Oscar talent who can headline “Wall Street” and also shepherd “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” to Best Picture. In 2024, he slipped into bifocals as Benjamin Franklin in “Franklin.”

• Model Cheryl Tiegs (1947) helped define the term supermodel with multiple “Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue” and “Time” covers that turned '70s beachwear (like a very famous pink bikini) into pop culture.

• Actor Mark Hamill (1951) etched himself into film history as Luke Skywalker in “Star Wars,” then conquered microphones with a storied run in DC animation as the Joker. He has kept busy with Netflix’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” and the upcoming "The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants."

• Actor-singer Will Smith (1968) began as half of DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, turned that momentum into TV fame on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," then leveled up to franchise hero with "Men in Black." He later won Best Actor for "King Richard," and in 2024 he drove "Bad Boys: Ride or Die" past $400 million worldwide.

• Actress Catherine Zeta-Jones (1969) sprang to worldwide fame in "The Mask of Zorro," then stacked acclaim with "Traffic," an Oscar-winning turn in "Chicago," and a Tony for "A Little Night Music." In 2025, she returned as Morticia Addams in new episodes of "Wednesday."

• Actor-singer Donald Glover (1983) jumped from writer’s room to arena stages with ease, stacking Emmys and Grammys while moonwalking through “Community” and “Atlanta.” He kept the momentum going with Prime Video’s “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” and the 2024 release of “Atavista.”
