Scottish stud Gerard Butler bares all as King Leonidas in 300, going nude in his scenes with his Queen, played by Lena Headey. Although the raciest scene of the film, producers did a very good job of stylizing it very tastefully. Beware, NSFW naked Gerard Butler ahead!

As expected, 300 set a new record for a March release, pulling in an estimated $70 million at this box office this weekend.

The March record was set at $68 million last year by Ice Age 2: The Meltdown.

300 also had the third-best R-rated opening of all time, after The Matrix Reloaded’s ($91.8 mil) and The Passion of the Christ’s ($83.8 mil). The film also scored the No. 21 overall premiere in history.

MONEY SHOT! 300 star Gerard Butler is caught redheaded catching a showing of his own movie this weekend at the Grove’s multiplex in Los Angeles, Calif.

Gerard, 37, snuck in to watch the audience’s reaction on Friday, 300’s opening night. He caught the 4:45PM showing. Did anyone notice him there??

Christina Ricci was just sharing about this on Jimmy Kimmel Live! the Friday before last. Christina said she would never watch her own film for fear of being caught and publicly humiliated.

Gerard has no shame and absolutely no fear. I love it!

And great news — 300 SLAUGHTERED the box office competition this weekend. Box Office Mojo estimates 300 ticket sales for Friday alone reached a potentially record-breaking $27.8 million.

According to Reuters, “That puts the Warner Bros. release on track for a $60 million-plus weekend, challenging the March record of $68 million set last year by “Ice Age 2: The Meltdown.”

Prepare for Glory!!!!!!!!!!

Just attended a private screening of 300 earlier this week and boy, was it bloody. Bloody fantastic!!! Standout performances from the entire cast including Gerard Butler (King Leonidas), Lena Headey (Queen Gorgo), Dominic West (Theron), and Rodrigo Santoro (Xerxes).

300 is the second graphic novel by Frank Miller to hit the silver screen and is stylized similarly as the first (2005’s Sin City). This time around, the story is more compelling. There are amazing Lord of the Rings-ish battle scenes, witty banter, comical moments (King Leonidas bites into an apple right after a battle scene) and tender scenes between the king the queen. (Gerard Butler fans, the luck of the Scottish will bring you Gerard’s posterior in all its glory.)

So far, 300 has garnered an unheard of 100% freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Here’s what some of top reviewers had to say:

• “A blustery, bombastic, visually arresting account of the Battle of Thermopylae as channeled through the rabid imagination of graphic novelist Frank Miller.” — Variety
• “Frank Miller’s graphic novel about an ancient Greek battle comes to vivid life.” — Hollywood Reporter
• “In between all the blood and guts, 300’s careful costuming and sensuous style is intensely erotic.” — CinemaBlend

Gerard was also interviewed on Friday on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Queen Latifah was flirting with him the whole time saying things like, ‘You shave your whole body alone?’ Hubba, hubba. Watch the video below!

Gerard will be making a Monday appearance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Set your TiVo’s now!

300 opens in theaters (including IMAX) nationwide on Friday, March 9.
