Kingsley & Molina join PRINCE OF PERSIA

by Matt Holmes

Two British veterans Alfred Molina and Ben Kingsley have joined the cast of the Disney adaptation of the Ubisoft video game Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time says Variety. Molina will play Sheik Amar, who becomes a mentor to the prince but it's not known what Kingsley's role in the movie is. Maybe he is some kind of villain? The duo have been in a movie together, 13 years ago in Species. They are the two to the furthest right of the image below...

Jake Gyllenhaal leads the movie as the Prince of Persia which like I said when it was announced was just horrible studio casting. Upcoming Bond lassie Gemma Arteton plays the love interest. Jerry Bruckheimer (who else) produces the first of what is hoped will become a big franchise for Disney, with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix director Mike Newell in charge behind the camera. Look for this one next Summer.
