Gemma Arterton is Tamina. Do you know who Tamina is? Well, she's the lady character and love interest of Prince Dastan in The movie adaptation of the classic video game, The Prince of Persia.
Subtitled, The Sands of Time, the movie features Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role. Gyllenhaal's Prince Dastand and Arterton's Tamina are in a playful love-hate relationship in the movie - a kind of courtship that ends in the two getting deeper into each other even when they start out as rivals.
Tamina is supposed to be the lady-in-distress in the movie, but for the most part, it's Prince Dastan who appears to be in need of rescuing as he gets into all manner of dangerous situations that imperil his life. Tamina just smoothly goes through them all, confident of her own abilities. Arterton's character is really akin to that of a modern day woman who can hold her own.
As an actress and model, Arterton definitely can hold her own in these pictures. She's the kind of woman that commands attention in her pictures, which is very true for her face. The photographer of her portrait used for one of the The Prince of Persia promotional movie posters (left) certainly knew this and made the most of it. Arterton also appeared in Quantum of Solace as Strawberry Fields.
