Gerard Butler plays Mentor in "Maverick"

Time to catch some waves for Gerard Butler as he set play mentor to a surfing legend in "Maverick".


According to Deadline, Butler is set to play the role of Rick "Frosty" Hesson, the guy who taught Santa Cruz surf phenom Jay Moriarty.

The film is based on Moriarity's life and "his quest to ride the treacherous Northern California breaks known as Mavericks, where winter swells create waves the size of five-story buildings."

Curtis Hanson is set to direct from a script by Kario Salem and Brandon Hooper.
