Gerard Butler, who flashes his flesh in new movie Law Abiding Citizen, has no problem with stripping off for film roles. In fact, he thinks most cinema-goers like to see some nakedness.

“It’s always nice to show a bit of butt. I don’t think it was gratuitous here. I think there is a good reason for my nakedness in this movie,” the 39-year-old told Extra.

The new movie - about an everyday man who decides to administer his own justice when his family’s killers are freed - also stars Jamie Foxx, who found it hard working with the Scottish heartthrob. “He has to do his whole thing for the ladies, which is great. But that’s when we men go to the concession stand!” Jamie explained.
