Butler explained that he got into pottery while filming the Apple TV+ WWII series, Masters of the Air. He shared, “I got really into it. All the vases in my house were filled with flowers… I had made vases and things. And when I finished that job, I just gave all the things… I gave cups and bowls and vases and things to people that I had worked with.”
In addition to his pottery skills, Butler also spoke about his new movie, ‘Elvis,’ where he did most of his own stunts. He mentioned, “I did basically all of it myself. I mean, there’s I think it might be one shot that’s not me. I know, man. They had so many ideas in the beginning that I’m so grateful that we didn’t have to actually go forward with, everything from helmets that had hair on the outside, which was just absurd.”
