London: `300` star Gerard Butler has vowed to bring the movie business home to his native Scotland as he has signed up as an ambassador for the country`s film industry.
The star recently persuaded Hollywood bosses to hold the premiere of his latest blockbuster, `Law Abiding Citizen`, in Glasgow, Contactmusic reported. Butler is adamant that he will keep on pressing for more movies to be made in Scotland and he has teamed up with the Glasgow Film Office in a bid to bring in more business. "Glasgow is a great place to make movies. You can shoot anything here, from urban and contemporary to rural and period. The crews are fantastic and it`s an easy city to get around. You spend endless hours in traffic when you make movies elsewhere," Butler said. PTI
