Recently, I got to interview Gerard Butler, alongside his co-star O'Shea Jackson Jr. and some of the crew of the upcoming Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, to discuss the heist sequel as well as the franchise's future plans. It was a huge milestone for me personally. As someone who considers the movie 300, and the character of Leonidas, to be among my all time favourites, interviewing Gerard Butler was a pretty cool way to wrap up 2024, and made me realise just how far I've come in a relatively short space of time. You can read my first Game Rant piece on the movie below, and the full interview will be coming in early Jan when the movie is set to launch. https://lnkd.in/eiHWFK2V
