Disney’s film adaptation of Ubisoft’s hit video game Prince of Persia: Sands of Time arrives in theaters on May 28, 2010. The fantasy-actioner is directed by Mike Newell (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) and scripted by Jordan Mechner, creator of the Prince of Persia game. Jerry Bruckheimer (Transformers) produces.

The following is BTS footage of the film focusing on star Jake Gyllenhaal (Zodiac, Donnie Darko):

I gotta say, up until now, the only Persian thing that got me excited was the Soltani dish at Darband’s in LA. But, this flick looks pretty fun. To see a trailer, click here.

Also, a happy birthday to Mr. Gyllenhaal! He turns 29 today.
