Gerard Butler has made a shocking revelation about his 2006 action film 300, directed by Zack Snyder. Speaking to People about the experience filming it, Butler said, "I remember every day somebody was getting taken to the hospital. You’d be doing a fight, you turn around, there’s a guy down there, a spear went in his eye. Another time, you turn around, there’s a guy over there who just fell, broke his ankle. I mean, it was insane."

Butler plays the King of Sparta, Leonidas, in the film, who leads his army of 300 people in a hopeless fight against the Persians. The actor, who suffered injuries while working on other films, was unharmed during the making of the Snyder directorial.

Butler is promoting his new film Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, written and directed by Christian Gudegast, which has been doing well in the US box office since its January 10 release.
