It isn’t just us mere mortals getting soggy this rainy Monday morning, as these new shots from Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time prove. Getting a little bit carried away trying to cool down in the arid Middle Eastern sun, our Prince Dastan, played by the brooding Jake Gyllenhaal, along with the sultry Princess Tamina (Gemma Arterton) are shown here drenched from head to foot, and then escaping on horseback still soaking wet … Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time, also stars Sir Ben Kingsley doing his best Evil Sultan as the coniving Nizam, as well as Toby ‘Dead Man’s Shoes’ Kebbel and Alfred ‘Doc Ock’ Molina. The film is due on our decidedly unsunny shores on May 28 2010.

Yummo!! Can I just say as much as I’m not too keen on waiting until May 2010 to see Jakey poo in action on the big screen in this movie, I am very much looking forward to all the promo materials that will be released between now and then. Jake Gyllenhaal wet? Oh hell yes, please and thank you. I wonder in what other states of undress we will see Jake as Prince Dastan next. I can hardly wait.

Well … OK … this poster may not feature Jakey poo as Prince Dastan but it does feature Gemma Arterton who portrays the character Tamina in the Persia. But, fear not … there is another poster that has been released along with this one. After the jump, check out the FIRST Prince of Persia poster to feature Jake Gyllenhaal as the heroic Prince Dastan …

Woot!! He looks good, yes? Ben Kingsley portrays Nizam in the film and will, most likely, get his own poster as well. But, as far as I’m concerned, I’m just fine with this one poster of Jake. It’s very similar to the promo pic we saw last Friday … do y’all like?

The new James Bond Daniel Craig was lookin’ quite dapper in his swanky tuxedo, even if that arm sling kinda clashed with the look a bit. It turns out that Craig essentially dislocated his shoulder while working on Quantum and had to undergo shoulder surgery to correct the problem. No word on how long he’ll have to wear the sling but hopefully it won’t be for much longer. The ladies at last night’s premiere looked lovely, Jack White (of Detroit’s White Stripes) looked frightfully awful but I think it was a look he was going for. As for the princes? Well they were there last night too. After the jump, check out a few pics of the dapper Royals as they made their grand arrival last night …

Man, they sure look good in their tuxes, don’t they? When asked who his favorite Bond is, Prince Harry revealed that the current blonde Bond is not his pick:

Prince Harry turned out to help Daniel Craig celebrate the world premiere of Quantum of Solace in London Wednesday night. So he must be a huge fan of the blond Bond, right? Well … not exactly. Before the movie began, Harry and his older brother, Prince William, spent a half-hour outside chatting with 200 servicemen, military veterans and their families. And high-spirited Harry made no secret of his favorite 007 star. “There’s only one Bond,” he told Stan Pepper, an 88-year-old veteran. “Sean Connery.” That might comes as a bit of a blow to Craig, the reigning James Bond, who strutted the nearby red carpet with girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell.

Aww … poor Daniel Craig. In all honesty, he hasn’t been James Bond for very long. Sean Connery’s Bond is legendary … that said, I am fully on Team Craig and am looking forward to his long career ahead as the new James Bond for the new generation. By pretty much all accounts, last night’s premiere was a stunning success. It’s always nice when you can get princes to attend your premiere events. Sounds like fun. Quantum of Solace opens here in theaters on November 14.
