Jake Gyllenhaal crowned ‘Prince of Persia’ |
Jake is reportedly involved in a new project. Check this out:
Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton will star in “Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time,” Walt Disney Pictures 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 sixth 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.
Doug Miro & Carlo Bernard, Jordan Mechner and Boaz Yakin wrote the script, which is based on the many games created by Jordan Mechner.
Bruckheimer is producing, while Mike Stenson, Chad Oman and Patrick McCormick are exec producing.
Production is set to start in July.
Gyllenhaal will next appear in Jim Sheridan’s “Brothers” with Tobey Maguire. He is repped by CAA and Management 360.
British actress Arterton is relatively new on the film scene but is already generating heat for her work in Guy Ritchie’s upcoming “RocknRolla” and the new James Bond movie, “Quantum of Solace.” She is repped by Independent Talent Group.
