According to Variety.com, upcoming game-to-movie adoption Prince of Persia: Sands of Time will start shooting in mid-june in morroco. Here’s a snip:
“Producers are always looking for cheap places to shoot and Morocco is one of them,” said Dune Films’ Jimmy Abounouom, who is repping the Moroccan shoot for Disney.
Epic project is a live-action feature based on the videogame. “Prince of Persia” has a script by Jeffrey Nachmanoff (”The Day After Tomorrow”) and vidgame creator Jordan Mechner. The vidgame spawned six installments and numerous spin-offs, boosting Disney execs’ hopes for a lucrative new tentpole.
Choice of Morocco as a shooting location will be a boost for the North African country’s film biz.
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is being produced by Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of Caribbean Trilogy, Bad Boys, Black Hawk Down) and is set to release in 2009.
