Jake Gyllenhaal as the Prince of Persia
Not since the days of Blackface has Hollywood worked a white out like this one. While Jakey G doesnt look particularly bad as the title character in the new Prince of Persia movie, he certainly doesn't look Persian, or even remotley middle eastern. Could they not have found anyone who fits the bill to play the part..how about Oded Fehr was he too busy? Ah well, it's not like Hollywood has ever really been to concerned with paying the right respects to the culture or even people from which their story's based. What do you guys think? Am I making moutains out of mole hills here?
