Jake Gyllenhaal Prince in video game film


Hollywood Reporter: "Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton will star in "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time," Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer Films' adaptation of Ubisoft's popular video game. Mike Newell is directing.

In the fantasy adventure, Gyllenhaal will play Dastan, a young prince in 6th century Persia who must join forces with Tamina (Arterton), a feisty and exotic princess, to prevent a villainous nobleman from possessing the Sands of Time, a gift from the gods that can reverse time and allow its possessor to rule the world."

So, can Disney and Bruckheimer succeed were other video game to screen adaptations have failed?

    Hmmm...sounds a lot like Tombraider. Still, Jake is definitely worth seeing!!
