Thanks to films like Olympus Has Fallen, Gerard Butler has risen to become one of the most well-known action heroes of our time. Probably one of the reasons why many fans consider him an ideal James Bond actor. What some may not know, however, is that he has already appeared in the 007 franchise. In a short but hot scene from James Bond 007 – Tomorrow Never Dies.
Gerard Butler has a single sentence in James Bond film and then dies
Media mogul Elliot Carver (Jonathan Pryce) pits multiple major powers against each other in Tomorrow Never Dies. So he attacks a British frigate and blames the brutal act on the Chinese government. Also serving on the frigate is an unnamed sailor, played by Gerard Butler.

His appearance is easy to miss. His face is in shadow only Butler’s Scottish accent is clearly recognizable. “At the stern we have already dropped by 14 degrees“, he reports on the damage caused by Carver’s attack. Shortly thereafter, all survivors are shot by Carver’s captor Stamper (Götz Otto).
So Gerard Butler’s 007 career so far has been short and easy to overlook. According to a Capital Breakfast interview quoted by the Daily Mail, the actor has been in talks about the James Bond role about 20 years ago. But now he is too old for that. Many fans will disagree. Others believe Jason Statham is the only right Daniel Craig successor.
