Gerard Butler
is a Scottish-born actor who's lately gotten a thing for doing Woobie characters,
not that there's anything wrong with that. He's been in
The Ugly Truth,
P.S. I Love You,
Law Abiding Citizen,
Gamers,
300,
The Phantom of the Opera,
Timeline,
Dracula 2000,
Reign of Fire and many more. Butler is something of a "2000s action hero", in the vein of
Jason Statham and the like. However, he has also proven himself as a romantic lead, and was the lead in a musical too.
