Official ‘Prince of Persia: Sands of Time’ Trailer

Published by Jeff Leins on November 2, 2009

Disney has released the official trailer for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, an adaptation of the video game series produced by Jerry Bruckheimer.  A rogue prince (Jake Gyllenhaal) reluctantly joins forces with a mysterious princess (Gemma Arterton) and together, they race against dark forces to safeguard an ancient dagger capable of releasing the Sands of Time—a gift from the gods that can reverse time and allow its possessor to rule the world.  Ben Kingsley and Alfred Molina also star.

Arterton is a beautiful woman and her voice is sexy, but does the entire trailer need to have her whispering over it? The visuals look pretty great to me though, almost exactly like the games, though I’m still not convinced Gyllenhaal was the best choice.

The usual grainy bootleg leaked online earlier today, but I wanted to wait a bit and post the high-resolution version for you guys.  Here’s the better quality version from IGN:

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is out May 28, 2010. What do you think?
