Machine Gun Preacher Premiere
on Friday, June 1, 2012 |
Gerard Butler and Michelle Monaghan attended the “Machine Gun Preacher” Los Angeles premiere at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences on Wednesday (September 21) in Beverly Hills.
Gerard Butler said he was "blown away" working with Michelle Monaghan. He was impressed by his co-star's beauty and down-to-earth attitude. He said: "Michelle is incredibly cool and incredibly fun. She is one of those girls who is as comfortable with the electricians, the key grip, the cameraman, anybody in the crew, catering as she is with her makeup crew or me or the director.
"We all get the same treatment, and fun and smart and self deprecating and then surprisingly irreverent. So, I was really blown away to get a girl who has that beauty and yet has so much more to give in terms of personality."
The previous night he appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno filmed at NBC Studios on Tuesday (September 20) in Burbank, Calif. to promote his new movie. After his interview with Jay, the next guest Whitney Cummings came out and joked she got pregnant just sitting near Gerry!
