Port Talbot-born screen legend Sir Anthony Hopkins is coming home on Monday to celebrate his 70th birthday.
The Hollywood Oscar winner became a naturalised US citizen in 2000, but will toast his landmark birthday with a bash at Margam Orangery.
The venue is expected to be awash with stars for the New Year's Eve event.
Details of the party have remained tightly under wraps, but it is understood Sir Anthony also hopes to round up pals from his pre-stardom school and teenage days, to help him celebrate.
Among the famous names who have been invited is fellow Port Talbot actor Michael Sheen, who will be attending with his parents.
And Richard Burton's brother, Graham Jenkins and his wife, have also been invited.
Sir Anthony, who came to international recognition in the film The Silence of the Lambs, visited the Margam venue in August to make sure preparations were going smoothly for his milestone birthday.
Finishing touches were today being put in place for the bash, although it is not yet known if Chianti and fava beans will be on the menu.
