The Prince Of Persia Movie Could Have Been Like This

Mechner has posted what he calls his “final draft” of the screenplay, which he pitched to Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer all the way back in 2004. When it was picked up, Hollywood writers took over and made what they believed were necessary changes, but since Mechner created Prince of Persia, it’s something else reading his version of how things go down.
