Based on the popular series of video games, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is the upcoming movie starring a be-wigged Jake Gyllenhall as a ‘rogue prince’ Dastan and Gemma Arterton as ‘mysterious princess’ Tamina. In the movie, the pair reluctantly team up to safeguard an ancient dagger that could release the Sands of Time, allowing its possessor to reverse time and rule the world.
Some clever person put the faces of pretty Jakey Poo and that other chick on two new posters. Check them out above and below. Pretty sure these are real and like the Harry Potter posters, these are just movie stills converted into one sheets via an orgy of photoshop and MS Paint.
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, also starring Sir Ben Kingsley and Alfred Molina, directed by Mike Newell, is out on May 28, 2010. The reviews and expectations are rather underwhelming, but it would be worth sitting through this trash just to giggle at Poo in a wig/ getting to see his greasy, oiled man chest.
this looks like it could be like the first Pirates, not ecpected to be any good, but turns out to be awesome…or it could totally suck,
we’ll see, though
I am expecting this to be just awful. Barely worth sitting through it just to stare at Jakey Poo.
Are you kidding? If these 2 hambones are supposed to look like Persians, I’m Marie Antoinette.
heck yeah Pauls, I think I first wrote about this movie before you became a commenter on the site. The early reports were on movie sites and ONTD and people were screaming “Racism!” at the top of their lungs. Light skin and blue eyes does not make for a happy audience. It’s Disney, but still. Damn. They sould have done a better job either casting or explaining this away.
I’ll concede that over the ages, Persians have been ruled by non-Persians (Romans, Arabs, Greeks, etc.) and that even *some* Persians to this day have lighter eyes and/or red hair, but c’mon! Even Zac Efron would be a better choice than JG. ZE’s at least Jewish. (Being a Jew, I can go there.)
