On-Set Informant: Gerard Butler Naked, Gives Crew Massages

All right, I know I’ve gotten your attention by selling the story like a cheap, cheap whore. So let me be clear:

1.) Gerard Butler is naked in the Philadelphia area today.

2.) Gerard Butler is a kind man who brings a masseuse on set for the tired and sore crew members.

Butler stars in Law Abiding Citizen, the F. Gary Gray movie that has been filming all over Philadelphia in the past two months, with co-star Jamie Foxx.

Today Butler is filming nude scenes on a closed set in New Hope, Pa. Though the movie has also filmed at prisons in the Northeast and Delaware County, Butler’s nudity is not for a dropping-of-the-soap prison scene. Our source said that the nudity in question is for a scene in which police break into Butler’s character’s home.

Our confidential informant has yet to answer whether or not Butler is still in “300” shape, or tell us any other naked truths. Our informant is a very, very straight man. Which is annoying in this situation.

As for the massages, Butler personally paid for a masseuse to come on set last week so that the exhausted crew, which has been working days and nights, could relax a bit.

Butler is the Scottish actor best known for his role of King Leonidas in 300 and also starred in Phantom of the Opera and that Hilary Swank chick flick P.S. I Love You (P.S. It’s horrible. But we won’t hold that one against him.).

wow

This film is getting more and more interesting each day!!

Ops sorry! thanks Donna for the article!! Great find!!

No problem! It just came through the wire.

, indeed.

I wonder if the masseur was nekkid, too.

So the police barge in on his character while he's naked? I wonder if it's going to be a naked love scene, a naked sex scene, a naked sex/love scene, a naked shower scene, an innocent 'I'm simply sleeping naked' scene, a dancing around the house and playing air guitar naked scene, or any or all of the combination aforementioned?

Will the police allow him to clothe himself before they arrest him, or will he be carted off to jail naked?

Why did he have to be naked in the scene? Does Butler like to be naked? Does he have this secret urge to tear off his clothing and run around the set naked because it makes him feel free and childlike?

God, I hope the editor has the good sense to leave that scene in, whatever it is.

Butler naked.

Discuss.

No wait, we better not. We're not down below.

That might not be a good idea.

Let me open up a "Butler naked. Discuss." thread downstairs.

Just to be safe, you understand.

You should add those questions to the other thread, DK.

We were promised some good scenes in 300 and they were lacking...so, I'm not holding my breath....y'know...I'll wait and get excited when it happens, if it really happens.
