In the last 25 years, Gerard Butler has smashed onto the scenes as one of the most iconic action stars of all time, but not all of his movies have been massive successes. Last year, Butler did star in the highest-grossing movie of his entire career with the live-action adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon. The sequel to the film is already on deck to be released in 2027, so it wouldn’t be surprising if it takes the crown from the original with even more box office glory. Butler struggled at the box office a few years ago with the debut of Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, which went on to become one of the most-watched movies of the year on Netflix after failing to even gross $60 million at the box office against a $40 million budget.
Butler has only starred in two movies this year, the first being Greenland 2: Migration and the second being In the Hand of Dante. The latter was finally released on Netflix earlier in the year, but it had a relatively quiet debut as it struggled to reach the same streaming heights as some of Netflix’s other streaming blockbusters. Greenland 2: Migration also struggled, but the nature of its struggles were more box office than streaming related. Butler’s Greenland sequel came into theaters carrying a $90 million budget, meaning it needed to make close to $200 million to break even, and it grossed only $45 million at the box office. The film has since become one of the most-watched titles in the world on HBO Max, where it also streams in America.
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You're a systems thinker who can't help but notice the seams in things.
The wasteland doesn't reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That's you.
You'd survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn't have it any other way.
Some fans have asked questions about a potential third installment in the Greenland franchise, but after the 2026 sequel bombed at the box office, whatever future plans were in place are likely dead in the water. In addition to Gerard Butler, Greenland 2: Migration also stars Morena Baccarin, who is best known for her roles in the Deadpool movies and Sheriff Country. The film was directed by Ric Roman Waugh, who recently helmed the Jason Statham action movie, Shelter. The official synopsis for Greenland 2: Migration reads as follows: “In the aftermath of a comet strike that decimated most of the planet, the Garrity family must leave the safety of their Greenland bunker to traverse a shattered world in search of a new home.”
Check out Greenland 2: Migration on HBO Max and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Gerard Butler’s future projects.
