Butler is very tall, and his roundish face is animated by bright,  expressive blue-green eyes and a great, pronounced nose that perfectly  blunts the softness of his features. He was dressed in jeans and a  sailorlike black leather peacoat that he recently found in a secondhand  store in Iceland, where he&#8217;d been filming &#8221;Beowulf &amp; Grendel.&#8221;  Butler, who is 35, has seesawed between big-budget pictures (he was a  co-star of &#8221;Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life&#8221;) and small,  independent films like &#8221;Dear Frankie,&#8221; a Scottish production that came  out last week in which he plays a mysterious man who poses as a child&#8217;s  long-lost father. &#8221;Lately,&#8221; he said in his lilting Scottish burr, &#8221;I  have only played characters without monikers. First there&#8217;s the  Stranger, as I am called in &#8216;Dear Frankie.&#8217; And then, of course, there&#8217;s  the Phantom, which is why I&#8217;m so tired.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2361\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2361\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-2361\" href=\"http:\/\/gerardbutlergals.com\/atthemovies\/press\/trading-faces\/attachment\/nyt_march2005_1\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-2361\" title=\"NYT_March2005_1\" src=\"http:\/\/gerardbutlergals.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/NYT_March2005_1-150x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2361\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A star is born: Helmut Lang white cotton tuxedo, $1,675, white cotton shirt, $275, tie and shoes.

Styled by Tiina Laakkonen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On this surprisingly warm day in early winter, Butler was in New York to  promote &#8221;The Phantom of the Opera.&#8221; For weeks he had been traversing  the globe on behalf of this sumptuous, romantic musical, in which he  plays the scarred, sexually compelling Phantom. &#8221;Of course,&#8221; Butler  said, as he poured a vitamin C powder into a bottle of water, &#8221;if  &#8216;Phantom&#8217; makes me a star, I will still be unknown. &#8216;The Phantom of the  Opera&#8217; is probably the biggest movie I&#8217;ve done, and for most of the  film, I&#8217;m wearing a mask and a cape, and it&#8217;s the least recognizable  I&#8217;ve ever been. When I watch the film, I think, Is that really me? And I  like that. Maintaining my anonymity suits me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The film&#8217;s director, Joel Schumacher, called a few days later from  London. &#8221;In Europe, actors don&#8217;t expect to be movie stars,&#8221; he said.  &#8221;Gerry is of that school. They don&#8217;t know if they&#8217;re ever going to be  rich and famous. In America, where everyone believes fame and money are  their birthright, actors too often only want to become stars. If that  happens, especially if it happens young, it often breeds a kind of  infantilism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Butler, born in Glasgow, spent his early 20&#8217;s studying law. His father  had abandoned the family, and acting did not seem like a serious,  practical pursuit. &#8221;I was a terrible lawyer,&#8221; he confessed, taking a  long swig of his vitamin-infused water. &#8221;I hated the law, so I went out  at night and drank and partied. A lot.&#8221; He laughed. &#8221;I&#8217;m very  extreme, very Catholic. There&#8217;s the good me, and the bad me. And back  then, I drank a lot &#8212; it was a constant search for the perfect buzz.  Sometimes I miss that search. I still cherish those dark moments, but I  don&#8217;t want to go there again. I stopped drinking for good a few years  ago. I had a moment of truth. Well, actually, I had 600 moments of  truth. I went back and forth, but I was sick of being sick, and tired of  being tired. Now I save my pain and anxiety for work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2362\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2362\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-2362\" href=\"http:\/\/gerardbutlergals.com\/atthemovies\/press\/trading-faces\/attachment\/nyt_march2005_2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-2362\" title=\"NYT_March2005_2\" src=\"http:\/\/gerardbutlergals.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/NYT_March2005_2-150x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2362\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Night rider: Brioni white jacket, $6,600, and white shirt, $375.

Robert Talbott ascot. 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK350 Roadster<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>By the mid-90&#8217;s, he had been fired by his law firm (which is &#8221;very hard  to do&#8221;) and had moved to London. &#8221;I gave in to my first desire, which  was to act,&#8221; he said. Almost instantly, he found work and was often  cast as dark, mythic, ominous characters &#8212; Attila the Hun in a  television miniseries and the original vampire in &#8221;Wes Craven Presents:  Dracula 2000.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Schumacher, known for his casting eye (he launched the career of Colin  Farrell), recalled: &#8221;I was in St. Louis, and we&#8217;d seen every movie at  the multiplex except &#8216;Dracula 2000.&#8217; I saw the film, and I saw Gerry,  and I said, &#8216;This guy is great.&#8221;&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Sensing his career would stall in England, Butler rented an apartment in  Los Angeles in 2000. (He has since moved and now has flats in London  and New York.) Because of his physical presence, the studios imagined  him as an action guy, casting him opposite Angelina Jolie in the &#8221;Tomb  Raider&#8221; sequel. &#8221;That was the first time I heard that my life was  about to change, that I was about to be a star. Of course, it&#8217;s hard not  to listen, but I don&#8217;t really enjoy the frenzy of all that talk. It&#8217;s  confusing and too exhilarating. Actually, I prefer a bit of pain. I am  more comfortable with a kind of sweet melancholy, and that is not the  prevailing emotion in Hollywood.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Butler identified with the sadness of the Phantom, his  isolation and loneliness. &#8221;When I read the script, I kept wiping tears  from my neck. But I didn&#8217;t know if I could do the singing. I started  training even before I had the role. I sang so much during the filming  of &#8216;Dear Frankie,&#8217; my co-stars kept telling me to shut up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After passing his audition with the score&#8217;s composer, Andrew Lloyd  Webber, Butler won the part. This led to talk that he may be cast as  James Bond. &#8221;I think they&#8217;re also considering Miss Piggy,&#8221; he said,  about to leave for yet another screening of &#8221;Phantom.&#8221; &#8221;When CNN said  on the air that there were rumors that I had been cast as Bond, I was  back in London. My washing machine was broken, and the central heating  wouldn&#8217;t turn on, and the house was freezing. There I was, the &#8216;next big  thing&#8217; again, and the contrast seemed greater than usual. On the one  hand, I was Bond. On the other, my life was a mess.&#8221; As he spoke, his  driver appeared with a pretty woman who worked for the limo company.  &#8221;Hel-lo,&#8221; Butler said, interrupting himself. &#8221;Can I sit next to you  on the ride over?&#8221; Pleased, she smiled shyly and made a call to her  dispatcher. &#8221;I think I&#8217;m getting my energy back,&#8221; he said, heading  toward the back door of the hotel. &#8221;It&#8217;s time to take a ride. You never  know where you will end up.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: NY Times Style Magazine Author: Lynn Hirschberg Published: March 13, 2005 Photographs: Raymond Meier Gerard Butler, known as Gerry (the name that suits him better), was leaning against the wall in the lobby of the Mercer Hotel, thinking of ways to &#8221;energize.&#8221; He said he was exhausted, but it didn&#8217;t show.
