Prince of Persia director Mike Newell tells Reuters that he’s worried that the film is “a little homogeneous”. Critics are already saying the film is a whitewash – filled with white actors. But is it, and are they correct?
You gotta give Prince of Persia star Jake Gyllenhaal star credit. That’s some great hair. So great that perhaps it, not Jake, could star in a biography film about Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain.
With a Best Supporting Actor nomination under his bed, Jake Gyllenhaal’s status as a serious actor has been cemented. But he doesn’t necessarily want to only be a serious actor. Because in the upcoming Prince of Persia, he’s Chesty Jake.
McFarlane Toys and Disney are teaming up to deliver a little shirtless Jake Gyllenhaal to the masses, with a massive toy line planned to coincide with the release of the film.
