Going Where Bruckheimer Won't

I'm sure many of you are already fans of Prince of Persia on Facebook.  If you aren't, then don't bother and just be a fan of this website instead!  (Or rather "like" it, because that is the new thing on Facebook, which constantly changes everything, all the time, for absolutely no reason.  Oh, Mark Zuckerberg.  The conversation you and I are going to have when I someday meet you...)

But if you ARE a fan/person-who-"likes" Prince of Persia, then perhaps you already know that the big "thing" right now is that we (the masses!) are able to submit questions and then Jake (or other people, but we don't care about them) will answer via The YouTube.

BUT.  What about all the questions that don't get answered?

Well, that's where PG steps in and takes over, because PG knows all.  So from now until Prince of Persia hits theaters, I will answer one fan question every day.  One question that the cast and crew WON'T ANSWER.  Yeah, that's right.  I'm going there.

Today, I address the issue posed by Heather "I really shouldn't make so much of my profile public because who knows what kind of crazy Jake Gyllenhaal fan might find it and announce to the world that I 'like' The 25 Days of Christmas on ABC Family" Rodman, from Buffalo, New York.  Heather writes:

"As an avid fan of the games I am overall very excited as to the graphics and high level this movie will be presented on. BUT I would like to know from the crew why did you decide to change Farah's name (which is beautiful) and why did casting not choose a woman of indian blood? Since she speaks in a british accent throughout the film, there are plenty of indian-british women that are great actresses that could have been chosen. I understand why Jake may have been chosen because he is a big actor even if he is not "Persian" BUT this actress chosen to be Farah is not a big name actress so why not go for a big bollywood name or a smaller british-indian actress?"

ANSWER:  Heather, Jake is not only not "Persian," he's also not Persian.  Thank you for your question.

Another in-depth, behind-the-scenes answer tomorrow!
