Get ready Gerard Butler fans: The Scottish hunk is going back to the ancient world in Ralph Fiennes' movie version of Shakespeare's most violent play, "Coriolanus."

However, 300 buffs, eager to catch a glimpse of Gerard's six-pack, might not see as much of the Ugly Truth actor as they'd like, since this is a contemporary adaptation of the violent political drama.

Gerard, 39, will play Tullus Aufidius, commander of the Volscian army from Shakespeare's play, while Ralph, 46, will take the title role.
