Ladies, get ready for Jake "Prince of Persia" Gyllenhaal! Just Jared has nailed the first set photos from the highly-anticipated Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, based on the popular video game in which a Prince does ... stuff ... God does he look hot, or what!? Okay, for realz now -- Jake plays a young Prince named Dastan who must team with a feisty and exotic Princess (Gemma Arterton) and stop an evil ruler from destroying the world. Something tells me this is one film where looks will definitely kill. Check out two more photos below, then the rest over at Just Jared. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time will hit theaters on May 28, 2010.
And speaking of guys who look good with their shirt off and shoot movies based on video games, 20th Century Fox has put out a few new promotional pics from Max Payne, starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis. In the film, based on yet another popular video game, Wahlberg stars as a guy whose family was killed and, well, he's out to kick some ass. Kunis plays a hottie assassin out to avenge the death of her sister. Together, these two are the kind of nuts you wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley -- but you'd definitely want to meet in a darkened movie theater. Max Payne hits theaters on October 17. Check out the new pics below.

Keanu and a spaceship after the jump ...
Finally, here we have a film that's not based on a video game, but it is the remake of a beloved film from wayyy back in the day. 20th Century Fox has shoveled out a few new images from The Day the Earth Stood Still, starring Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly. The film tells of an alien and a giant robot that visit earth. Fun stuff! Pretty cool images below, one of which shows a football stadium being destroyed. Check it out -- Roland Emmerich would be proud. The Day the Earth Stood Still hits theaters on December 12.

Gyllenhaal looks closer to the prince than I imagined he would, which is a good thing, naturally. 2010 is a long ways away though...this flick better have some mindblowing effects work with the 'Sands of Time'...

Jake looks like a machismo drunk in that pic. Like a white guy dressing up as the prince.
Mila Kunis looks great as Mona though. Wahlberg looks like himself. I just don't think I can get into him as Max Payne, he's just not right.

Jake looks absolutely horrible, just as I imagined. This movie probably will be pretty much dead for me, pity seeing how much I loved the game, too bad those rumors of orlando being the prince didnt come true, he's not my first pick but alot more believable than Jake, he looks like a drunk with a wig on.

awefull.... Jake is not right and is it just me or does he look like he belongs in the movie 10000 b.c. ? I believe in the first p.o.p. game the prince wears white and blue...and looks more alladin'esk not so much like a caveman.... I must admit jake does look buff but the prince isn't supposed to be not untill the sequels when he turns into more of a bad ass. I think disney is getting this all wrong.
Boo on you disney, for messing up what could be a really cool movie.
