De verfilming van de razendpopulaire game Prince of Persia komt er dan eindelijk aan. Mr. Gyllenhaal, die de prins in de titel speelt, heeft hiervoor behoorlijk in de gewichten moeten hangen om van zijn “The Day After Tomorrow” twijgjes-lichaam af te komen.

“The setting is sixth century Persia. A nefarious nobleman covets the Sands of Time, a legendary gift from the gods that allows its possessor to turn back time. Whoever owns the Sands of Time has the power to rule the world, and this villainous lord would use that power to enslave all of humanity. The only person capable of defeating this tyrant and saving the world is Dastan, a youthful prince. Now, with plucky princess Tamina by his side, Dastan will attempt to prevent the Sands of Time from falling into the wrong hands.”
