Gerard Butler has taken to Facebook to share a moving video tribute to fellow actor Michael Nyqvist, who the BBC reports died Tuesday at the age of 56.
Nyqvist was probably best known for his role as Mikael Blomkvist in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. He and Butler had recently starred together in the film Hunter Killer, which is currently in post-production.
"Of all the movies I've made he's right up there as one of my favourites, if not my favourite, in terms of somebody who just had such incredible talent, and childlike qualities and playfulness, but more than anything such an incredible humility, and warmth, and this cheeky kind of glint in his eyes," says Butler in the clip above.
"It breaks my heart. And it breaks my heart we'll never get to sit together to watch this movie."
