Prince of Persia: Why Didn't I Get an Audition?

Shockingly, Hollywood is coming out with another movie set in the Middle East and managed gather an all white cast. Apparently it was really difficult to find an available Iranian or two in Little Tehran a.k.a Los Angeles.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time follows the life and times of the ancient Prince Dastan played by Jake Gyllenhaal. This movie, based on the Ubisoft video game, also stars Gemma Arterton from the latest 007 film as well as (surprise, surprise) Ben Kingsley. Ben or Behzad, as I like to call him, has managed to weasel his way into as many Middle East/South Asian rolls as possible. Here he is, brown-faced to the max as Gandhi in 1982.

After House of Sand and Fog, Behzad seemed be keen on the Persies and waxed his eyebrows for his role as the villian Nizam. I'm not gonna lie, that's a badass scowl he's got going on and I think I have that belt.

Jake I-got-tickets-to-the-Gunshow Gyllenhaal, however,

looks, acts, and sounds like a tool.

Here he is training for his role, douche bag V and all.

Last, but not least, Gemma Arterton hopefully will manage to cake enough foundation over her freckles for her role as the princess of Persia.

Don't miss out on Swarthier than thou Jake in this PoP sneak peak!
