New Images Of Deadpool & The Prince Of Persia Look Uncool

A pair of new images of Jake Gyllenhaal as the title character in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time have appeared online as well as a new still of Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

In short, the Prince of Persia ones are an example of bad marketing and the Deadpool shot makes a cool actor and a cool character look cheap.

Prince Of Persia & Other “Game-to-Movie” Thoughts

If you’re keeping track, or looking for any tidbits, the much anticipated translation of the Ubisoft game, Prince of Persia, has reportedly started filming on the 16th of September.

As we’ve noted previously, Jake Gyllenhaal of Brokeback Mountain fame, stars in Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. Also starring in the flick are Gemma Arterton, Sir Ben Kingsley, Alfred Molina and Toby Kebbell.

First Pic Of Jake Gyllenhaal From Prince Of Persia

We’ve got the first pic from the upcoming Prince of Persia movie, with star Jake Gyllenhaal trying his best to look the part of titular Prince Dastan. (What, they couldn’t find a Persian actor to play the part?)

I bet right about now Naveen Andrews is feeling pretty slighted.

Yes, We KNOW Jake Gyllenhaal Is The Prince Of Persia

The “Trades” as they’re called (Variety, Hollywood Reporter,etc) have announced today something that you’ve known was probable for over a month if you’re a regular Screen Rant reader.

Jake Gyllenhaal will play the Prince of Persia in Jerry Bruckheimers upcoming film of the same name.

Latino Review first broke the story that Jake was being pursued for the role back on April 8th of this year. Did any of the mainstream media outlets give them any credit?

Hell no.

Gyllenhaal of Persia?

Gyllenhaal of Persia?

I’d barely finished my Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time story and gone to bed yesterday when news broke that Maggie Gyllenhaal had been offered the lead role that was first mooted for Orlando Bloom and Zac Efron. (Yes, that picture is for the ladies that read Screen Rant.)

The video game adaptation is to produced by uber-producer Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Mike Newell.

Maggie Gyllenhaal?

Fooled you! Of course it’s Jake Gyllenhaal, Maggie’s brother - she’s too busy romancing The Dark Knight..

So what are my views on this?

Yep- Keep reading to find out.

Who Will Be The Prince of Persia?

Who Will Be The Prince of Persia?

Jerry Bruckheimer is a fantastic producer. He makes slick entertainment that may not be mentally challenging, but it is enjoyable. His resume looks like a collection of $100 million dollar hits, and with the CSI franchise under his belt on television it can be truly said that the man is an entertainment phenomenon.

One of the next projects on the Bruckheimer conveyer-belt is the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (based on the videogame). With any big movie comes the question- who will star. Apparently the smart money is on everyone’s favorite elf and pirate fighter- Orlando Bloom. However, it may also be Zac Efron.

I’m guessing that the character description for the lead reads: wooden actor.

Weekend Movie News Wrap Up: Mar 9, 2008

An old saying says that a week is a long time in politics - well that dude obviously didn’t follow movie news, because a week in film can make or break a career, or in Vic’s case: a DVD player.

It’s once again time for us to fill you in on some of the news stories from the past week that we missed and make sure that you know everything about every film that is currently in production. That is a slight exaggeration, but you see what I’m getting at.

Just keep reading to heighten your Screen Rant experience.
