Super hot Gerard Butler, that ultra buff, gorgeous and kinda scary Spartan dude from 300 and spooky masked marvel from The Phantom of the Opera is really quite warm and friendly in person. We were delighted to sit down briefly with the tall, blue-eyed hunk-o-man in Beverly Hills recently to get a glimpse of Butler's warm and fuzzy romantic side. The actor plays Hilary Swank's hot hubby in the new romantic dramady P.S. I Love You.

We're a sucker for a smooth Scottish accent and between interviewing James McAvoy and now Gerard this month, we're in hottie heaven. The imposing Butler arrived wearing a light gray jacket over a black shirt and slacks. Butler likes to use his hands a lot while talking. He's got a tan and is sporting the beginnings of a beard for his currently-shooting thriller Game. You can also catch him next year in the crime comedy RocknRolla and the fantasy adventure Nim's Island. I first said 'Who IS that guy?!' when I saw him in Timeline, Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life and the dragon-flick Reign of Fire. Now everybody knows Gerry, as his friends call him. Sit back, start reading and you will know him better too...

TeenHollywood: You have a very long opening "battle" sequence in P.S. I Love You with Hilary. What was more challenging; sparring with her or fighting in 300?
