Jul 21 2009First Look at Ben Kingsley in 'Prince of Persia'
Welp, looks like Disney decided to save some money and hire Wax Figure Ben Kingsley (WFBK) instead of Actual Ben Kingsley (Sir Ben Kingsley). Which isn't a bad deal, actually. Going with WFBK, you won't get a Gandhi performance out of those glassy eyes, but you might get something better than a Love Guru.
Big version at Coming Soon.

Dear Madame Tussade: Sir Ben Kingsley has decided not to accept a role in "Prince of Persia." Please send your best replica as time allows. Thank you. Sincerely, Disney.

The twinkle in his eye really contradicts with the constipated scowl on his face. Either way: scaaaary!!

Totally was thinking Ming when I saw this too.
I was bummed to find out there wasn't going to be a Flash Gordon remake.

My mind immediately towards Jafar from Aladdin but I guess all those other people work too...

Am I the only one that thought this was Anton LaVey before reading the title?
