With a lush vista in the background, she captioned the pic, ​​"Happy 55th birthday to me 💃🏻 looking forward to new adventures #grateful."

Hayek’s celebrity admirers were quick to send their well wishes.

“Aquaman” star Jason Momoa responded with four heart emojis.

Former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan chimed in by writing, “Happy birthday Salma!”

While her “Eternals” co-star Richard Madden also sent his best by commenting, “Happy birthday!!x”

Hayek’s birthday follows as her career has recently seen her take a turn in action films.

On the heels of her summer blockbuster “Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard” alongside Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson, Hayek is next poised to wow audiences in Marvel’s “Eternals.”

In the film, the Mexican-born actress will continue to take no prisoners starring as Ajak, a superhero character originally written as male in the comic books.

After completion of the highly-anticipated superhero epic, Hayek admitted she became overcome with emotion.

"Something strange happened. I teared up a little bit. But it was not about my dreams to be a superhero," Hayek shared.

"It was because it means so much to so many people that, to think that for a Mexican girl – a Mexican woman in her 50s – was able to be a superhero. I felt a lot of pride to have my superhero outfit on. It meant something."

“Eternals” is set to be released on November 5, 2021.
