Gerard Butler Reflects on Grueling Filming Experience of '300'

The actor revealed that injuries on set were frequent, with cast members hospitalized daily during the making of Zack Snyder's 2006 action epic.

Gerard Butler described the production of Zack Snyder's '300' as intense, with daily injuries requiring hospitalizations for cast members.
The actor recalled incidents such as a spear injuring an actor's eye and another breaking an ankle during fight scenes.
Butler himself avoided injuries on '300' but shared experiences of near-fatal incidents on other films, including almost drowning while filming 'Chasing Mavericks.'
