Acclaimed actor Gerard Butler straps on his metaphorical armor for Greenland, a gripping sci-fi disaster film that premieres today.
Actor Gerard Butler takes on the role of a structural engineer in sci-fi film ‘Greenland’
The film throws Butler into a harrowing scenario – a world teetering on the brink of annihilation. A deadly comet hurtles towards Earth, leaving governments scrambling and families fractured with fear. Butler portrays John Garrity, a structural engineer thrust into the ultimate test: protecting his estranged wife (Morena Baccarin) and young son amidst global chaos.
Faced with societal breakdown and the relentless approach of the comet, their journey becomes a harrowing race against time. The family’s desperate quest for safety leads them to a last-minute opportunity for salvation, offering a glimmer of hope in the face of an impending global apocalypse.
“Rather than the typical kind of action movie where you’re focusing on the bigger thing, the comet, that’s almost in the background… I felt like the themes in the movie, that it was incredibly emotional and fraught and it’s just this family going through hell… It wasn’t your typical hero who’s going up there to punch the comet in the face,” Butler spoke of how the film focuses on personal stories rather than the apocalyptic background.
“This is just a simple man and a family. The hero here is almost the family unit themselves. The mother is the hero, the son is the hero. And sometimes heroism is literally just fighting enough to survive. So I really enjoy the subtleties and it took me by surprise,” he added.
