Prince of Persia (Summer 2010) - Trailer

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time will be released on Summer of 2010 (May 28, 2010). The film stars Jake Gyllenhaal as Prince Dastan, Gemma Arterton as Tamina, Ben Kingsley as Nizam, and Alfred Molina as Sheik Amar. The film is based on the popular 2003 video game of the same title. However this 2003 game is not the original game, it was a reboot from the famous 80s game called Prince of Persia (PC etc). It was one of my favorite old games other than Prehistoric (PC). I'm really looking forward to this game to movie adaptation. It is considered as the most expensive game to movie adaptation film ever made, which is estimated usd200m. Persia changed its name to Iran in 1935. ( image and trailer courtesy of Disney )
