American actor Jake Gyllenhaal recently joined his three English co-stars Gemma Arterton, Sir Ben Kingsley, and Alfred Molina at the Dorchester Hotel in London for a press conference to publicize the world premiere of their film Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, which will take place at the Westfield London this weekend.

Gyllenhall was caught by photogs, looking suave in a polished suit and sun glasses, on his way to the event. The cheerful tone of the conference was set by the actors, who appeared overjoyed to talk about the film and their experience working on it.

I couldn’t help but notice that for a film set in the heart of the Middle East, the cast is well… not very Persian looking. No offense to the talented actors, but other than Sir Ben’s half-Indian roots, you can’t  get much less Persian than this cast. Ladies and gentlemen, another culturally misrepresentative film brought to you by Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer!

Britain’s Got Talent singing sensation Shaheen Jafargholi has landed a deal with US uber-agents CAA after his heart-wrenching performance at Michael Jackson’s memorial service on Tuesday.
