The film's producers wanted a known actor to play the part but kept coming back to Butler's screen tests and decided he was their man. In 2000, Butler was cast in two breakthrough roles, the first being "Attila the Hun" in the USA Network mini-series, Attila (2001). His film career continued with small roles, first in the "James Bond" movie, 007: Завтра не помре ніколи (1997), and then Russell Mulcahy's Tale of the Mummy (1998).

His acting career began when he was approached in a London coffee shop by actor Steven Berkoff, who later appeared alongside Butler in Attila (2001), who gave him a role in a stage production of "Coriolanus" (later, Butler played Tullus Aufidius in a big screen Коріолан (2011).

In fact, Jazz brass is banking on Butler quickly becoming a fan and media favorite. As far as the Jazz are concerned, Butler has those traits in spades.
