The first ever trailer for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time has just popped up online. It’s not quite what I expected. That’s a good thing since what I expected was some sort of half-hearted Mummy franchise knockoff. Instead, the whole thing has a strangely sci-fi vibe which really works. The one exception to how much fun this seems is Jake Gyllenhaal, who I’m not sure I buy as a rugged hero and who’s accent sounds… well… odd. But maybe we just need to see more.
The official version has popped up online in various places after a brief window on YouTube. You can find a bigger version of what you see below at IGN.
Adapted from the popular Prince of Persia series of video games. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Dastan, a sixth century prince who with help from a princess named Tamina (Gemma Aterton) fights to prevent a villainous noble from possessing a talisman called the Sands of Time, which can reverse time and make him ruler of the world.
