Two new images of Jake Gyllenhaal from Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time have appeared online over at The Huffington Post. The casting of Gyllenhaal all makes sense now. The game is mostly played by males which means Disney have that demographic, so in order to get females flocking to see this action/adventure they needed to hire a good looking A-Lister (just like they hired Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom for Pirates of the Caribbean). I know your game Disney! (And it will probably work).

    Why coudn't they cast a real Persian for the role of Prince of Persia?

    There must be some Iranian American Actors.

    Gemma Arterton as Princess from India??? They got an English Rose to play someone from India? If they could not find someone in the United States, of Indian descent, Bollywood is a phone call away.

    Freida Pinto would have been a good pick
