for an persian dude he sure looks like a white dude

Tastes_like_chicken

Now that right there is a beef sandwhich.

Thorax

he looks abit big, but I quess they could make his belt wrappings thicker and pants abit baggy to make him look abit smaller.

Omniel

All he needs is an overcoat with writing all over it and he could play a whino.

Grahamunculus

Donnie Darko's been working out

KEELr

Eh, he doesn't look all that great for the part imo. Hopefully this is just a bad picture and he looks better in the actual movie.

mfwahwah

Hmmm, I'm slightly concerned at the intelligence of the production team... Masks go over mouth, not forehead.

Hendrixx

And he looks like one of the worst possible choices for the Prince that still looks almost believable. I thought that they would pull it off for a while. That's what I get for being optimistic.

digamma

@Ashurahori: Dead Man's Chest.

Yeah, I thought so.

Jayl3w

He's not that buff, but yeah his skin is not right for the characters.

Fenian

Fuck, I really needed that laugh. Thank you Jake Gyllenhaal. Thank you.

hagridore

For those who are saying he's more Warrior Within than Snds of Time, the Sands of Time prince's outfit was too cartoony for a successful transaction. This one's more stylish and will make for a good one.

Plus, relax. This is judging an organism for one single cell.

Plus, the guys behind Pirates are on this. It can't be THAT bad.

Ashurahori

Sorry for the earlier post. I was a bit too hasty pressing the "submit" button. But seriously, that looks awful.

Vetterli

WHHAAT??? Why Gyllenhaal?

lame

couldnt they pick someone else for the love of god like...Oded Fehr

the guy who played Carlos in the resident evil movies and the nomad tribesman in the mummy movies

although that would be a little confusing...

Dinoczar

LOL!!!!

Vetterli

Too buff and too white. He also looks like a homeless man who just got finished shooting some HGH in a dark alley. I feel like if he touched me I might get scabies.

My skeptical level for this movie has risen approximately 30%, bringing me to an overall of 90% skeptical. There's science behind my math, really.

SG_Mahonay

looks like the movie nazis removed the pic

balls

Jakey boy is totally on 'roids. This might be the most blatant case since Brad Pitt beefed up for Troy.

Then again, if I had Hollywood's finest doctors on call and making sure I got only the finest d-bol and whatnot, I guess I'd do it too. Definitely a better way to juice than all the morons out there who buy questionable steroids online and inject it into themselves on good faith until they end up in the news for freaking out.

Jonaconda

That's definitely the WW prince

frostcircus

@SAGA: Much obliged to do so ...

I am sooooo straight don't even get me starte ...

ok now you did it ...

I think there is a hint of roundness to his abs, nothing particular it maybe possible could have been... mmm, square?

SymbolicMeaning

@Fadakar:

Probably because you say "CASTED" and don't see anything wrong with that.

Trym

He looks more like in the Two Thrones games.

AlejandroLestad

Looks very WW rather than SoT...

Mr.Monkey

@Milkzhakes:

You never saw Jarhead did you?

Sollus

dude is definetely on the juice i dont remember him being that ripped on his other movies.

Milkzhakes

he looks good enough with a tan he'll look the part idk why everyones tossing so much shit

gabelogan

a little something for the ladies, but he's no Chuck Norris.

Grimmjow Jeagerjaques

Both his Ribcage, Dorsal Fin, Torse, ARM COLLUM and NECKSHAFT are showing signs of tampering. As soon as the proper authorities read this, I suggest they apprehend and diagnose him.

Bone Structure

Jesus Christ, he looks like someone out of a cosplay. XD

They're doing it by the book, that's for sure.

Ashurahori

Honestly looks good.

crim

YUM
not going to see the movie now, don't need to anymore!

Molotov

I want to look like that. Except showered.

elevenoverzero

He'll do a great job, I reckon. I wasn't convinced before, but he really does look the part. As long as that Arabian guy from the first Mummy movie is in there, it'll be awesome.

pylon_trooper

He looks like he has no place of residence, no legal tender and probably no job after this film.

He's a bum.

OcelotSnake89

he looks like a caveman.

badwhodo

@sir_carrot: Wow. Yea right. I totally can't see his abs or anything. Looks totally crap.

You don't get out much do you? He's bough as hell. Bit too much to look like this guy, specially his pecks and body shape are too "big": [www.daeya.org]

Candlejack

That costume looks less "Sands of Time" and more "Warrior Within."

Numerous

*HETERO ASSERTION*

*VAGUELY JEALOUS PUTDOWN*

SAGA

Dude is HENCH. He certainly looks the part. Never had him down as a good PoP but I stand corrected.

Sam Smith

@seefresh: ehh...no. just..shut up.

terrible pick on the prince. can't control how much hollywood shits.

Shabat0ge

Roids, its whats for breakfast.

Since there is no testing in Hollywood, a little help goes unnoticed sometimes.

Leobebes

Wow. Since when did he turn all Gears of War character?

screamingslave

Ew

savemeaquaman

eh, those muscles are all airbrushed on... that's how Hollywood does it ya know.

ForAllThatEverWas

Looks little to chubby to me

acrana

Before actually reading the headline, I thought it was going to be an article about wrestling.

VOIDMunashii

I hope it's a good movie.

Norrin_Radd

His stomach is a little disgusting. It doesn't even look muscled. Just. Chunky.

And hairy as fuck.

Oh well. Give the poor guy a break. He's still in the throes of Ledger's passing, he doesn't need internet attacks on how he's not Persian enough to be Prince of it.

sir_carrot

Reese Witherspoon FTW! Is it me or does she had bigger tits during cruel intentions?

Silenced

@RodneyMcKay: @PapaBear434:

I have to agree, never pictured him as PoP, but he's starting to look the part. His skins needs to be a little darker, needs to get a tan.

exkon

@seefresh:

How a Persian prince can be become Arabian!!!

Also, being raciest in a bad thing.

ArabianGamer

@AlejandroLestad: By gamer standards, that's pretty damn ripped.

yargh

Isn't the prince, you know... not white?

1cesc

Too much muscle for the Prince from the games. He should be fit but not like he's going to the bloody gym. Oh well whatever.

Also I don't know how anyone can see Persian resemblance in his face. He looks nothing like someone from the middle east.

@seefresh: Try get more offensive next time.

Candlejack

i still can't see him as a persian prince.

drunkentyger

He isnt that ripped.
And the hair does not convince me.
You know what? i'm playing Dartan, I'll do it better.
all i nead is just to grow beard

AlejandroLestad

Hmm not showing for me...

JP05

He looks more like a 80's metal band singer!

Jackel2072

It has got to be the purple wrath, I hear that stuff jacks you up pretty good.

sergotron

Wow... That's actually pretty good. I mean, I didn't see him as The Prince at all. For one thing, he's not Persian. But he REALLY looks the part. And very man-pretty, I might add.

PapaBear434

He looks like he could also be playing the Bionic Commando dude as well, they just haven't slapped on the big ass bionic arm yet. :)

RodneyMcKay

Wow, that he actually looks a lot better as the Prince than I thought he would. Awesome!

kylenalepa

He's too buff, I cant picture him running on walls.

yargh

He looks Ok.....

*HOT!*

SsLordMagus

From gay cowboy to Arabian prince... pretty similar roles, no?

seefresh

WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY DO TO MY COWBOY?! ;_;

Eddy666

the wonders of prosthetics

entro

FUCK, WHY WASN'T I CASTED, GOD I HATE GYLLENHAAL!

Fadakar

Yum.

errr... I mean, "he must work out."

MrBionic

Persians are aryans people, but they could have dusked up Jake for the role...not sure why they didn't...guess they are going cheeseball.

hiruu

?

That looks like someone photoshopped Donnie Darko's head with bad proportions onto some beefcakes body. He looks 8 feet tall.

Someone tell me that's a manipulated pic or some sort of prosthetics? It can not possibly be Jake Gyllenhaal. It looks weird seeing his head on that meat slab.

Cultivar

What a douchebag.

He's a horrible actor and is going to lead to the butchering of a great franchise. I hope he dies, I honestly do. If he dies halfway through production and they have to scrap the production, it will be better than having a Gyllenhaal as the Prince.

tzaketh

Wow, I suddenly feel fat.

DE5TR0YER

Bubble Boy has changed.

CheckersMcGavern

That is so not his real hair!

AntiHiro

Are we sure that they aren't actually making a movie of Condemned or Splinter Cell: Because Being Dirty and in Prison is Cool Now? Is the whole Prince of Persia thing just a smoke screen for the actual movie, Blue Harvest style?

Also, it should be noted that Persians are technically caucazoid, not arabian- the phenotype includes somewhat tanner skin, but more in the "I'm Spanish" way than anything else- a nice bronzy tan and maybe some makeup should match it up fine. The problem isn't Jake's skin color, the problem is that regardless of that, he still just looks like corn-feed Nebraska beef, and nothing is really going to change that. Its like trying to make people buy that Arnold Schwarzenegger is Italian.

I Think We're Property

He looks like your friendly neighborhood bum!

DukeOfPwn

As long as it's not Orlando Bloom, I'm happy.

wildfire759

Looks better than I thought he would.

ShirtGuyDom

How am I supposed to forget you?

Bernard McGraw

He looks hot and sexy.

MGSchick

He can be the prince of my Persia any day!

Hurm... that came out naughtier than intended.

But his wig... I can tell it's a wig.

Guvnah

@TotaleeAwesome: 30-something fitness freaks who spends way too many hours in the cardio session, playing with his Apple iPhone and sporting shorts which bare a little too much

Ahhh. You mean the type that women actually like and find attractive. Now I get it. ;)

Candlejack

Bwahahaha, too buff? You guys cannot be serious right? Maybe its the fact that I am a complete muscle headed moron who yaks about 320lbs bench presses but he looks like one of those 30-something fitness freaks who spends way too many hours in the cardio session, playing with his Apple iPhone and sporting shorts which bare a little too much. Though I must admit he does actually pass off as a Persian. I don't want to speak too soon as they may actually put some thought into the story and character development *stops* *thinks* *LOL's* who am I kiddin...

TotaleeAwesome

@P3nnst8r has returned on the Graces of Brian Ashcraft:

OMG! They should remake Encino Man!!!

Only in the future! And with robots and space marines!

The SmacK

wow...someone got a personal trainer to get primed for this role. He does look hot. Lets hope they spent as much time on the script as Jake did beefing up.

asTer0id

@Fenian:

I'm going to assume you have muscles so big that you can't put your arms down.

SG_Mahonay

Sweet Merciful Jesus...For I walk through the valley and the shadow of death, I fear no evil and I take a look at my life as it goes past...

acez2087

Oh, i thought they were just remaking Encino Man.

P3nnst8r has returned on the Graces of Brian Ashcraft

Wow, he muscles up well. Also, and this is *just* a hunch, but I don't think he's in full character and make up everywhere he goes, so all the whiners moaning about his skin color / general appearance can give it a rest. This reminds me of people bitching about the art in D3 - it's clearly not the final / only representation of the product.

...not that Jake Gyllenhaal is a product.

thesean

That pic isn't doing it for me... the Prince seemed somewhat thinner than the portrayal we see here. Face doesn't come across as right to me either...

This is how used to video game characters I am... I can't even let something like a person's gut-area size be different in a movie portrayal. >_>

Ravenhood

THis movie will suck big time. I can feel it.

Placentasaurus

Thought I clicked on Defamer for a second.

Roids. They're what's for dinner.

Evil Tortie's Mom

meh gorilla hair. hairy belly is no sexy.

Himiko

@tzaketh: chill pill.
take it.

daibondo

Bugger me, this is gonna BLOW

mufasa95

oh my god.

so hot.

*drool*

Sai-kun

Looks a little too weird for me...Not sure if it's just me, but it just seems a little too weird for me...

TuxBobble

@The SmacK: Encino Man: Starcraft?

P3nnst8r has returned on the Graces of Brian Ashcraft

@CheckersMcGavern: LMAO.

now that was funny shit right there dude.

@seefresh: you made absolutely no sense whatsoever. congratulations and.....

TRY AGAIN

zanzibarlegend

Someone done gone and put a mop on his head.

That's not Prince of Persia at all.

Scuba Steve

He looks like the southern guy from Lost......

Lucidity

Eh...sorry, but even Sir Ben Kingsley looks more Persian than that. I'm just not sure.

Mister_CrazyGuy

i gotta say lol on this outfit.

big ol lol.

nice pecks tho.

relax_guy

Jake look like he would be sitting along next to Tom Hank on a stranded island for years like on Cast Away.

Shachihoko

hahaha i couldnt see him like that but now that i have, i must say wow

supernintendo215

Kinda hot. But yeah, he needs to lose about 5 pounds. Then he'd be perfect.

djbrandon

He's actually...you know...hot!

I thought I'd be the only one saying this, but apparently not!

Although I agree with a previous commenter in that he looks too heavy to be scaling walls Jackie Chan style. Perhaps that's who they should have picked for the role, Jackie Chan! That would be equal parts odd and awesome all at the same time.

Mobus

well atleast he looks like him with the hair and everything and dont forget thats just a camera shot, with the movies affects and lighting you would probly say he is pretty good

Masterspeed

He's still dopey looking too me.

yokoland

I'm jealous. He's built AND he is with Reese Witherspoon.

I hate him... grrrr...lucky bastard...

bigdonthedj

He's certainly not "too muscular" to play the Prince. Just because he has more muscle tone than the average reader of this site (myself included), doesn't make him too big for the role.

charliew77

@TotaleeAwesome: Yea of course he's not soooo bough. He's just got some muscle to him. He doesn't look like a bodybuilder in the slightest.

Trouble is, he already has too much pure muscle mass and not a sleek enough body to pose as the Prince. He just doesn't fit.

But it's Hollywood so what was I expecting anyway? Screw it :)

Candlejack

@Fadakar: Because he's an established actor and you're... some dude.

charliew77

And he is not on roids for goodness sake, why is it every time someones sees a guy with modest muscularity they yell OH MI GOD IT IS TEH ROIDZ!!!111!11!!!

TotaleeAwesome

Let the movie magic happen!

ThaiGrocer

@Shachihoko: WILLSSSOOOOONNN!

Doesn't pass off much for me, but I know Gyllenhaal is a hell of an actor. I know he'll be great. Everything else, I'm still skeptical of.

WallaJoy- Snorlax?

@Candlejack: Bwahahaha x250, not in my gym matey, not in my gym. I will once again re-iterate that he is sooooo not buff, in fact he has the body of one of those old men really really struggling to keep in shape. I find it preposterous that these Hollywood figsticks pass off as buff to some people. *Remembers Arnie and the good old days of Conan The Barbarian* God Arnie us gym guys need you more than ever, come back and show these tools what it means to be a real man.

TotaleeAwesome

Granted I'd probably find any reason to bitch about this movie, but here goes...

He's too buff. The Prince was more wiry and all about the agility than strength. A buff Prince to me sends the wrong message. Secondly, he needs to wear a bright blue shirt of which he needs to rip off pieces at various points in the movie as seen here.

Silent Predator

... He actually quite a bit like the prince.

Puff

The movie has been delayed - goto JimHillMedia.com and find out why too ;-(

ヨシダさん 25

He's been buff for a while; ever since Jarhead. Which was ages ago now. So saying he's on roids just because YOU haven't paid attention to all things Gyllenhall is a little rude.

trigger2

Lol, that looks cheap. Uwe directing this one?

HaydenTenno

I still think that the Prince of Persia should be played by, you know, a PERSIAN and not some white guy from LA.

Sinnix

He's..um..too light-skinned to be Persian! Yeah, too light! (Reese's too old...I think)

SigmundTheSeaMonster

The guy in the game didn't look that persian to begin with. Not much hope for this movie anyway, it probably won't be the disaster the Gears movie will turn out to be tho...

Azures

@tzaketh:
What the hell?

elevenoverzero

Comic Con is over Jake, really now...

Rorschach2112

Caveman Indeed.

lol

xCruciaLx

I think it's a horrible casting choice. Yeah let's get the white guy to play a Prince of PERSIA.

He is certainly in shape for the role though.

Jaysunli

@Echelondagod: Because my friend, that makes way to much sense.

Suda51

I don't like his face, and his screen could be darker....but meh I'm not going to watch it ever so what do I care!

Suda51

Umm why is a white guy playing a Prince of "PERSIA". Nothing against Jake he's a great actor. But I'm sure there was an Arab out there somewhere that could fill the role better

Echelondagod

@tzaketh: Ugh, I can't stand Gawker's new policy of "Disemvoweling." Just delete the posts completely. -_-

That being said, Jake looks pretty hot up there, and this is coming from a lesbian. He's a bit too buff, but definitely could rock the part with a little slimming down.

Kia

doesn't the prince wear a tunic/shirt?

wnflame

That wig is seriously messed up.

Spartan1308™

Wow. Remember when he was just a skinny teen in Donnie Darko? If I had to nitpick, I'd say he's packed on a bit too much muscle. I'd expect an incredibly agile gymnast-type athlete to be very toned but not so bulky.

Either way, he fits the role well enough.

And although this has been addressed, it bears repeating: Persians and Arabs are completely different. I have friends who would be very offended by such an ignorant assumption.

Cam_Ras

Absolutely terrible.

Benjo

I guess Persian = Gay as far as Hollywood is concerned. 300, and now this? Tell me I'm wrong...

stranger

He still doesn't look Persian.

Gouki4u's avatar has a severe case of Jekyll and Hyde

It's like how they got Kristen Kruek to play Chun Li
and shes only half asian LOL Soon they'll be getting
Brad Pitt to play Ryu hayabusa in a Ninja Gaiden movie..
cause that makes so much sense

TrackerTrem

@Candlejack: And you don't get to the gym much. I wasn't aware that everyone who goes to the gym is a god damned roid monkey.

TheGuero

Looks great, he's a great actor, everythings great right? Wait, it's a video game movie :(

Sushmonster

Looks just like Jake Gyllenhaal in a bad wig.

BurgerBat

he looks like hes playing a character in 10,000 B.C. instead

rob61920

I'm impressed, he looks good. they actually payed attention to detail. now if they do the same thing for snake, we're set.

SolidSnake1118

Oh, I will definitely be seeing this...*drool*

Super Bunny Princess

maybe he'll die after filming so people will like him too.

karaquazian

Wow he really looks like the prince. He's got good acting chops so I got hopes for this one.

GreyFoxV1

His name is Dastan, not Dartan.

cardiot

@Candlejack: I agree with you. I think it's another bad casting choice. I think they should've hired a relatively unknown actor so the entire time you're watching the movie you're not going "Hey, that's Jake Gylenhall as the Prince. How weird is that?!"

kylo4

@Super Bunny Princess:

Awww...Do you wanna be the Super Bunny Princess of Persia?

The SmacK

@P3nnst8r has returned on the Graces of Brian Ashcraft:

I was thinking more like Encino Man: BattleStar Galactica...(the new one, not the old one).

The SmacK

Let me get this straight, you have a Jewish dude playing the "Prince of Persia", yeah I can see this opening to critical acclaim in Iran.

Hardcore1

I would love to see the physique of half the people claiming "he's not fit enough".

gothamdarkknight

Capitan Rainbow aprooves.

Falsoman

@kylo4: I somewhat agree with you, but if he can really play the part well, then we could see him more like the prince than Gylenhall. I mean isn't that an actor's aspiration?

jrnolasco44

Looks more like the Warriors Within prince, too, not The Sands of Time prince. Ah, well. I really would like a genuine Persian actor, though. Also, Kingsley either is South Asian or partly South Asian I think.

syafiqjabar

@seefresh:

'Persian' prince

syafiqjabar

@hiruu: Finally, someone who knows that Persians/Iranians aren't Arabs. The mask guy does rock though, great expression!

sherv

They couldn't find an Iranian actor to play the Prince? That would be a little more authentic.

VengefulRonin

Looks like the prince. But all we need is his acting as the Prince.

shrek187

Oh my goodness. HE'S BEAUTIFUL.

MaiAriSquee

Here's hoping we only get Sands of Time's and Twin Thrones' whiney bitch nature, and not Warrior Within's full on emo-ossity

BlueGeek

@seefresh:

Racist and homophobia; my, aren't you the complete package =/

Also, for this pic, just freaking NO. Gawd, that doesn't remotely feel like Prince of Persia! He looks like he's cosplaying! BADLY!

Byakko

I lol hard at people who suggest steroid use. His muscle mass is not that big, at all. It's just that what little muscle he has is ripped, which is mainly achieved through cardio. Sure, he could have used a ripping roid for this role, but it looks more like the work of cardio. Remember kids, muscle definition does not equal muscle mass. With all that, he's in awesome shape.

I_Hate_This_Place

Nice. Now I won't need to care about the movie's plot or acting.

Cwn

omg < first thing to come out of my mouth when I saw the pic

I don't know why but I think that I was expecting something else :/

Shad0X

His hair feels out of place..

Tracid

Yah, less hairy pectoral gay-bar imagery, more Sands of Time awesomeness.

marmidukestank

@gothamdarkknight: Anytime man, anytime.

@I_Hate_This_Place: THANKYOU!!

TotaleeAwesome

@karaquazian: Seriously? Wow.

greycobalt

@KEELr: Yeah I thought the same.. Damn he's built some body.

looking forward to the flick. although I wish they had taken the actual prince of persia for the movie

Elrinth

Holy crap! I didn't know he had it in 'im!

Angryrider

he looks awkward and dirty....

pandafresh

Why did they choose him? There had to been other people out there to play the prince. *sigh* we'll just have to see.

CrazyEcho

I think it is a pretty good real life rendition of the character, kudos to costume design on that one.

theonlydoublej

Heh, back to the gym I go.

Paradyme

....I don't like his appearance for the prince(in that I don't think he looks much like him at all..) but I'll wait to see how well he acts the role.

Ajh

I'll reserve my judgment for when a trailer or official photo's are released that show a good idea of what the final film will detail... Though I was never looking forward to this film to begin with.

B33

Everything looks great except the face. Which means that the costume guys did a great job, just Gyllenhaal is very wrong for the part.

I like Gyllenhaal fine, I just doubt this is the role for him.

ddrussianinja

This is his real body and it isn't steroids, i know enough steroid users to know that when you do use them your traps and shoulders blow up big time, Jake looks like he puts in hard work naturally, fair play to him.

londonlad

@TuxBobble: so do you think its a little too weird for you or something?

fokin_pikey

Soon he'll belt out "Run to the Hills".

Tull

He looks.....dirty. But not as bad as I thought.

heretrix

Billy Ray Cyrus is playing the Prince?

But seriously, Billy Ray?

Stimpy

Everything is fine except for that face of his. His facial expressions make him look like a really white guy.

BluFire

If that is a wig, it looks terrible.

Jshaw

his abs is not that cut.. or atleast hard to see

Ken

Ugh. I think he looks terrible. He looks like a country singer, not the prince.

Lexicographer

Bleh... this movie is going to blow.

He looks ridiculous.

goddessakasha

It's amazing how much more appropriate he'd look with a tan.

Roto13

@Candlejack: Well played.

Jonaconda

Kevin Sorbo's Love Child?

Final

I don't have high hopes for the movie, but he is a pretty great actor (who has chosen some less than stellar films at times),so we'll see.

TearsandScreams

*Waits for Bubble Boy 2*

Nside

I say its a acceptable look for the part. Let's see they can get everything else to be at least, "decent". That's not too much to ask for isn't. I don't need a Oscar worthy performance but at least something that doesn't make me feel that I did not waste my money at the theaters.

HannibalKing

@seefresh: well it looks like you never played the game, it is called prince of persia not prince of arabia, that means that he is a persian prince !! why are dumb people allowed to use PCs ?

mrouardi

@I_Hate_This_Place: You clearly haven't worked out around people who juice - while it's possible he's been training for months for this role, assuming this happened quickly (as things do in Hollywood - quickly being < 1 month), it is without a doubt the result of steroid use. Though I am loath to search for Jake Gyllenhaal shirtless, here is a before pic for context: [bp1.blogger.com]

Taking steroids doesn't just make you "toned," it increases muscle mass at - well, an unnatural rate. You don't go from thin/ripped to muscular-ripped naturally. To gain muscle, you need to eat a LOT and work out a LOT - it takes months to build the muscle, then to rip any excess fat you need a good deal of well-balanced diet and exercise. With steroids, you can straight up gain obscene amounts of muscle with little fat in weeks. Assuming he did this in under a month, it's gotta be juic.

nonpareil

Man all you people who say he's been airbrushed or he's using prosthetics or he's juiced up... seriously do your homework first. Have ANY of you seen his 2005 movie Jarhead? It was his next movie after Brokeback. He's ripped to hell in that film, and it's all him... so quit your pandering when you don't even know what you're talking about.

strobe32

@nonpareil: Really. I had no idea! /sarcasm

As someone who trains a lot, you're preaching to the choir. As far as what you said in regards to steroids, it depends on which ones you are taking and the outcome you desire. There are roids specifically designed as a "cutting" or "ripping" agent. My point was that he does not have near any muscle mass at all to suggest the use of roids. He is just well defined. Which, as I stated, he could have used a "ripping" agent for that look, but I highly doubt it. I know and understand the cycle of eating/working out heavy, as I went from 170 to 225 in 4 months with a 5000 calorie/225g protein intake a day.

I_Hate_This_Place

Umm, I actually have no response for this. It just looks ... off, I don't know how to explain it. I think the prince of Persia is a bit more ethnic looking. That just looks weird dude, I'm sorry for all the gay cowboy love fest out there. You'll have to hold onto the memory of jack twist 'cause that shit is just jack yo!

DeathInNovember

1.) He's too white to play a Persian prince.

2.) He's too built to be Dartan.

Boooooooooo, terrible choice of actor.

>:(

BlkMagik07

All they need to do now is photoshop his face in the movie and we will be set.

gencid

His wig btw is completely horrible in that photo, maybe it looks better in action, but that looks like crap:o

Crull

He looks too white:/ Hes not made for the role imo, while i don't doubt that he can do it, he doesn't look the part at all. Heh, its like robert downey jr. playing a black man in tropic thunder, its more of a farce then realistic.

Crull
