On November 19, 2021, Driver celebrated his 38th birthday.

Hamill penned a sweet tribute, reminding fans of the time he and Driver teamed up to rescue a lost dog.

He did the same thing back in 2020.

[{"selector":"#anim-1e1db435-d6e2-4a93-b1c3-69b1b6cd8701","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

In 2019, Driver was hard at work filming “Annette.”

[{"selector":"#anim-b24f2cba-1d9a-4160-9dfd-03bf5304f809","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

While on set, the director’s 9-year-old dog Javelot went missing.

[{"selector":"#anim-b007b0f0-b1b6-413b-be6b-f51fb657c3dd","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

Driver sprung into action and recorded a video pleading with fans to help find Javelot.

[{"selector":"#anim-78ff7a6a-6868-4ae5-b5a9-72545e5de804","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

However, Driver has no social media accounts, so Hamill decided to share the message far and wide.

[{"selector":"#anim-560e77fb-1b40-4e62-b26b-66c3c1f4426f","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.01)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.999)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

It worked. Javelot was found, and Hamill hasn’t let Driver live it down ever since!
