Thomas Haden Church

Happy Birthday to

Thomas Haden Church

50 today

After years of struggling on the sidelines, anyone remember him in "Wings" or George of the Jungle?, Church finally made some serious impact in 2004's Sideways as a serial womanising TV star on a batchelor trip with is alcoholic ex roomie. Since then he has clearly been taking all those big gigs he couldn't have been auditioned for in the wilderness years, like the Sandman in Spider-man 3, right, and the upcoming John Carter of Mars. Good luck to him I say, these roles won't be there forever, just don't spread yourself too thin.
