Michelle Pfeiffer appears to be aging in reverse and her latest stunning selfie only goes to prove it. 

The celebrated star took to Instagram to deliver a powerful message about gun crime and sparked a divisive conversation about politics, but also about her appearance. 

The usually smiling actress was serious in the close-up in which she looked almost makeup-free. Her hair was worn pulled back from her face and her complexion was flawless.

Fans were quick to wish her many happy returns, while her good friend John Travolta also added his well wishes, writing: "Happy birthday Michelle! Love JT." 

It's been a busy few years for Michelle, following her return to Hollywood in 2021 after a five-year break. She came back to acting to star in dark comedy French Exit, and has been working on a number of high-profile projects ever since.

Michelle stepped away from the limelight for several years

Discussing her return in Town & Country magazine at the time, she said: "I realized my daughter was looking at colleges, and I saw the writing on the wall. I thought. This is going to hit me really hard. It’s time for me to get back into moviemaking…Your seat is never saved in this industry. It’s very competitive. 

"There’s that transition time when you’re not the ingenue and you’re not really old enough to be the grandmother—you’re not old enough to play Frances.

"I'm at an age when the parts are getting more interesting again for me. I guess the timing of it really worked out, because I don't feel I missed out on much." 

On what the future holds, the star added: "I want to do more theatre. I've got too much on my plate at the moment, but that's the thing I wish that I had been able to do more of."
