Gerard Butler injured three people on the set
Gerard Butler admitted that he caused complete chaos on the set of the new movie "Copshop" during only one day of filming, when he managed to injure three people while doing his stunt scenes.
Fortunately, no one was seriously injured, but the Scottish actor joked that he had such a difficult day that he started thinking about retirement.
When asked about his most memorable day on the set, Butler said:
"I do a lot of action and I rarely, rarely, rarely hurt anybody but I was fighting one stunt guy and he smacked his head on the lockers and his head split open, just because of where it was. He’s a friend of mine, by the way, and I’ve worked with him before, and he was totally cool about it but it was just so much blood coming out."
"And then I was fighting another stunt guy and I didn’t actually touch him but he had to move his head and he hit it against a pillar – his head split open! And then I had to shoot somebody with a stun gun, Ryan O’Nan. And Ryan, for another role, has quite a big belly – he had to put on quite a lot of weight for that. So the pad – because these things have spikes in them – the pad came up and his belly was sticking out and I shot him!" Butler added.
It all happened in one day, at that moment, the actor said, he started thinking about retirement.
"I always try to do my own stunts," Gerard explained.
