Prince of Persia Movie

THE PRINCE OF PERSIA: SANDS OF TIME movie is reportedly in production now in Morrocco. Release has been pushed to 2010. Still that is better than 2020. :)

I have been waiting for this for years...dredding any small mistakes that will cause this awesome story to fail. Too many video-game-movies tossed about in Hollywood eventually end up falling into the wrong hands. Thankfully the one i have long dreamed about for the big screen has caught the attention of Hollwood and has made its way into the right hands. Those hands belong to Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates Trilogy, etc.). I am excited! Especially after seeing the leaked set pics. The set looks like it will be intricate and gorgeous--pretty much spot-on with the game.

I have mentioned that I had a few people in mind for the leading role...the one Jake Gyllenhaal landed...and even though I am glad someone I really like got the role I figure I will still post those I thought of as accurate for the leading man. Pics are from JustJared.com

OH YEAH... I have yet to mention what I think of Gemma Arterton being the female lead simply because I dont think much of it. I find it odd that she is white (just as i have Dastan being Jake, but mostly I am annoyed that they have already scrapped the original character's name. I am not sure why they have done this but i sincerely hope that is all they have changed about the wonderful little firecracker known originally as "Farah". She is now called, "Tamina". Hmmpf.
