James Marsden had the perfect birthday bash to celebrate turning 50.

The X-Men actor shared many of the photos from his party on his Instagram Stories, which gave a peek at the star-studded festivities.

The event was hosted by George Clooney's tequila brand Casamigos at the famed Sheats-Goldstein Residence in Beverly Hills. It included a custom-made cocktail menu: a cucumber jalapeño margarita, a passion fruit margarita, and Casa Ranch Water (Casamigos tequila with sparkling water and lime).

Guests were also treated to burgers from Shake Shack, which were adorned with stickers on the wrappers that said "Marsden is 50."

The birthday boy was presented with a cake that displayed one of his early modeling photos, an "iconic" one, according to a fan, with black frosting writing out "Happy 50th Birthday James!" and gold-colored "50" candles.

Marsden shared photos of some of his celebrity guests, which included his Jury Duty co-star Ronald Gladden, Woody Harrelson, Aaron Paul, former Love Island USA presenter Arielle Vandenberg, and Tessa Thompson—who gifted him a mug featuring a collage of his face.

Gladden, who has remained friends with the actor after filming the hit Freebie series, quipped on his Instagram Story, "What a fun 30th bday for James."

"A huge thank you to @casamigos and @rachelzaliz for keeping the party going strong and the drinks flowing late," wrote the 30 Rock alum on one of his Stories. He additionally thanked Casamigos VP Rachel Zalis in a separate Story, writing, "You are the best @rachelsalis Thank you for orchestrating one helluva night!"

Besides turning 50, Marsden has plenty to celebrate this year: the actor received his first-ever Emmy nomination. He's up for Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Comedy Series, for his meta role as an exaggerated version of himself in Jury Duty.
