• Will Smith is wishing his longtime friend and costar, Martin Lawrence, a happy birthday!

• Smith joked that Lawrence, who turned 60 on Wednesday, April 16, does not "look a day over 70" on Instagram alongside a photo of Lawrence wearing a large beard

• The actors are best known for collaborating on the buddy cop series Bad Boys, which celebrated its 30th anniversary on April 7

Will Smith always has a joke at the ready for his friend, Martin Lawrence — even on his birthday.

On Wednesday, April 16, Lawrence celebrates his 60th birthday, and his Bad Boys costar Smith, 56, shared a photo of the two to Instagram showing Lawrence wearing tan robes and a large fake beard. "Happy Bday Marty Mar!! You don’t look a day over 70 ;-)," Smith jested in the caption.

Smith and Lawrence are longtime friends and costars, having shared the screen in the buddy cop action movie series Bad Boys, in which the two portray Miami detectives who investigate and fight against drug traffickers in the city. The original movie was released on April 7, 1995, and both Smith and Lawrence also took to Instagram on April 7 to celebrate that film's 30th anniversary.

“30 years ago @jerrybruckheimer, Don Simpson and @michaelbay took a chance on us and Bad Boys was born!! Grateful for all the love y’all have shown us thru the years ????????,” they captioned the post, which displayed a number of behind-the-scenes photos from the film's set, including pictures of director Michael Bay, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and cast members Michael Imperioli, Joe Pantoliano, Téa Leoni and Theresa Randle.

Smith and Lawrence made a second Bad Boys movie back in 2003 and then reunited for Bad Boys for Life in 2020. The fourth movie, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, was released in May 2024 and saw the pair's characters Mike Lowry (Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Lawrence) go on the run after discovering massive corruption in Miami's police department.

Back in June 2024, Smith shared on social media that Lawrence originally asked him to sign on to costar in the first Bad Boys movie without a finished script, something Smith said he was not fond of in the moment. "If you know me, you know I do NOT like flying blind like that. But it was my shot to work with w comedic genius like Martin - so I said, you know what? F%## it. I’m in," he wrote at the time. "And the rest is history. Thank you for tagging me in, Marty Mar. You are the definition of a Ride or Die."

Lawrence recently caught up with PEOPLE to discuss his new animated movie, Sneaks, which debuts in theaters on April 18. "I'm at that point now — I done did it all. So many things in my career and in my life and everything," he said, when asked about his milestone birthday. 

"Now it's just about enjoying the fruits of my labor, doing what I want to do and spreading love," Lawrence added.
