Chasing Mavericks Trailer Debuts

Gerard Butler stars in Chasing Mavericks

MTV has a first look at the trailer for Chasing Mavericks.  Watch it below!

The official website is also up at http://www.livelikejay.com/ as is a Facebook and Twitter to follow for all the latest news and updates.

CHASING MAVERICKS is the inspirational true story of real life surfing phenom Jay Moriarity (played by newcomer Jonny Weston). When 15 year old Jay discovers that the mythic Mavericks surf break, one of the biggest waves on Earth, is not only real, but exists just miles from his Santa Cruz home, he enlists the help of local legend Frosty Hesson (played by Gerard Butler) to train him to survive it. As Jay and Frosty embark on their quest to accomplish the impossible, they form a unique friendship that transforms both their lives, and their quest to tame Mavericks becomes about far more than surfing. Chasing Mavericks was made with the help of some of the biggest names in the surfing world, and features some of the most mind-blowing real wave footage ever captured on film.

02-10-12: Celebrating 11 Years with Gerard Butler!!

WOW, we can’t believe it, but it’s true …. Gerard Butler Dot Net is celebrating its ELEVEN year anniversary! We can’t believe it’s been 11 years since three friends decided to create a place for people to learn about a little-known actor who played Dracula and Attila.  We couldn’t be happier to still be here and still supporting a man we have come to call “friend” through all his success and hard work.

Of course, we wouldn’t be here without the countless hours of help from volunteers who help manage our gallery, news and newsletter. We wouldn’t be able to do what we do without the countless contributions from fans across the globe who send in their pictures and news finds. We couldn’t do what we do without the continued support of Gerry, Alan Siegel, Danielle Robinson (thanks guys!!) and the film professionals who send us project news and updates!!

Every year so many of you want to wish Gerard a Happy Valentine’s Day, we at GerardButler.Net strive to make those wishes also benefit those in need. Instead of sendings cards and gifts, we ask that you use the same amount you would have spent on those things and donate it to Kids Kicking Cancer. Over the last four years, GB.Net has raised over $70,000 during this campaign. This year’s campaign will run until March 15, 2012. Click here to donate and click here to leave a Valentine’s message for Gerry!

Gerard Butler.Net Christmas Candles

We, Angels and Mortals, Believers and Nonbelievers,
Look heavenward and speak the word aloud.
Peace. We look at each other, then into ourselves,
And we say without shyness or apology or hesitation:

Peace, My Brother.
Peace, My Sister.
Peace, My Soul.

-Maya Angelou (excerpt from Amazing Peace)
