“She’s so cool and so great to work with that I almost killed her.'
During a recent appearance on “The Drew Barrymore Show,” the Scottish actor shared a few behind-the-scenes stories from some of his most memorable movie roles, from “The Bounty Hunter” to “The Ugly Truth.” While reflecting on the past, the actor detailed a hilarious — albeit dangerous — moment when his character performed a sexy dance for Hilary Swank’s character in 2007 hit “P.S. I Love You.”
In the movie, Butler is clad in boxers and suspenders as Swank’s character watches him perform a sexy dance from bed. The scene reaches its comedic climax when the crocodile-designed clip on his suspenders snaps off and hits his character in the face. “The camera people had these plastic fronts to protect themselves from this crocodile. It was so dangerous,” he explained. “And I had to pick it, and it would go past my face. And this time, I’m crawling toward the bed. It gets stuck. It released, flies over my head, hits her in the head, and slashes her head. I mean ... you could even see the teeth of that. She has to get taken to hospital.”
