That's problem with the Hollywood Machine. No real imagination. Gemma Arterton as a Princess of India? I do like her, but they could have made a phone call and gotten any of a number of Bollywood actresses to play the part, if they could not find a Western actress of Indian descent. I'm sure there are a number of Persian actors in North America to chood from. They even have one in Heroes. I've never played the game, but the casting already leaves much to be desired.

I think the movie will do fine and im not bringing it up to overall bash the project, but honestly, The whole thing looks kinda hokey with Jake Gyllenhal Running around. I love the games but i judge film and games on different things. It doesn't have to be a perfect translation. I just hate when the name of an actor without a shirt sells your movie for you. I would have liked to see Naveen Andres (aka Sayid Jarrah) of Lost fame play the prince. id hate to bring this into it but for once i think its a valid detail…..WHY couldn't they just get a middle eastern actor or actor that looked more middle eastern?
