BIOGRAPHY OF GERARD BUTLER
Gerard Butler was born in Pasley, Scotland, on November 13, 1969, from a family of Irish origin. He is a good student and despite some youth theater background, he graduated in law from the University of Glasgow. He begins his apprenticeship in an Edinburgh law firm, but the habit of parties and alcohol – contracted after the death of his father who he found after 14 years of separation and to whom he is very attached – is not compatible with the seriousness of the work. Fired, he moves to London with the intention of becoming famous as an actor but is forced to do a little bit of everything to support himself, until he meets Steven Berkoff, that I write it for a role in his Coriolanus. It is therefore with a costume role, the first of many, that his career begins. He also plays the theatrical version of Trainspotting and after small but significant appearances in My queen (where he dives naked in frozen waters), 007 – Tomorrow never dies and a more consistent role in Talos – The shadow of the pharaoh, he moved to Los Angeles, at the age of 30, to seek greater fortune.
Overseas he’s a modern-day Dracula in Dracula’s Legacy, side by side Angelina Jolie in Lara Croft: The cradle of life but above all in the 2000 gets the role of Attila in the miniseries of the same name. On TV he also plays The Jury. In 2003 is an archaeologist in Timeline, from the novel by Michael Chrichton, while Joel Schumacher I write him as the protagonist of the film version of the musical The Phantom of the Opera. His only experience in the field is that of a rock band he performed with when he was studying law, but he conscientiously takes singing lessons and puts on a flawless performance, despite having to act disguised and disfigured.
In 2005 plays the epic Beowulf & Grendel, a film that brings to the screen the characters of the ancient Anglo-Saxon poem and, above all, in 2007 is a mighty king Leonidas in 300, that Zack Snyder draws from the graphic novel by Frank Miller. It is a great international success, followed by the romantic drama PS I Love You of Richard LaGravenese, In search of Nim’s island with Jodie Foster is RocknRolla of Guy Ritchie. He later appears in the sci-fi thriller Gamer, in the revenge movie Private justice and in romantic comedies The hard truth is The former hunter. He also lends his deep voice to Stoick the Viking in the animated saga How to Train Your Dragon and on the set of Chasing Maverick, where he plays a surfing legend, hit by a giant wave, is briefly hospitalized.
In 2012 is the protagonist of the American film of Gabriele Muccino What I know about love (it is the year he also enters rehab to free himself from an addiction to painkillers) and the following year he produces a very successful action, Power attack, where he alone saves the White House under terrorist attack and whose sequel comes out in 2016, Attack on power 2. The 2016 it is also the year of the mythological Gods of Egypt in which he plays the role of Set, god of darkness.
