McG had been seeking out Will Smith to star in the movie, but that never happened, so the movie was without a Captain Nemo. Variety is reporting that Disney stalled the project after McG left to helm Dead Spy Running for Warner Brothers and a new sitcom for NBC with Larry Charles. In other boat news Disney has found a captain to direct the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

Comingsoon.net has the exclusive photo of Sir Ben Kingsley in the upcoming Disney adventure Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Yesterday we showed you the first posters for the flick which stars Jake Gyllenhaal in an adaptation of the popular video game. Kinglsey plays a “villainous nobleman” who is in possession of the Sands of Time which is a gift from the gods that can reverse time.

The detail that goes into the makeup and costumes of these characters really makes this look awesome. Check out the photos.
