First official trailer for Mike Newell’s big-screen adaptation of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. The film, which stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, and Ben Kingsley, is due in theaters May 28, 2010. And you know what? I had my doubts but this looks to be another solid Jerry Bruckheimer summer blockbuster. Sure, you’ll forget it 20-minutes after leaving the theater, but man those two-hours sure will be fun.

With rumors of Bond 22 simply being titled 007, thanks to star Daniel Craig’s loose lips on a British talk show, and recent photos of him training for the movie on speed boats, mums been the word on all other fronts recently. Empire Online has scored a slice of info. Seems that the young and pluckish Gemma Arterton (honestly, Gemma is one of my favorite names for a girl) has been cast in an unidentified role for the new flick.
Arterton doesn’t have many credits to her name, with the most notable ones being a role in Guy Ritchie’s crime thriller RocknRolla and the schoolgirl comedy with Mischa Barton, St. Trinian’s.
She’s sexy, but not quite in the sort of way you want a Bond girl to be, more in the cute and cuddly way. Sort of like in the Miss Moneypenny kind of way.
