Gerard Butler has said that he will "be a little more careful" about future role choices following his recent on-location surfing accident.
The 42-year-old was hospitalised in December following an accident on the set of On Men and Mavericks in California.
In an interview with The Mirror, he said: "Many times I've found myself in positions I shouldn't be in. I was underwater for a long time and I remember thinking, 'This is crazy'.
"I don't mind taking bumps and bruises but then you think, 'Hang on a minute, this is my life!' I should be a little more careful when I'm choosing my roles... I'd still like to be around in a few years!"
Butler previously insisted that reports of his accident, where he was held underwater by strong waves, "were not exaggerated", describing it as a genuinely "close call".
