Gemma Arterton in THE TIMES (2010) photoshoot.
Right now you can find her starring in the box-office smash Clash Of The Titans, and soon she will appear alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in the Disney epic, Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time.

"What was so appealing about this job is that it was so tight, there was no messing about. Prince Of Persia was shot over six months and sometimes we would do a scene a week. I just get so bored, you know, like, 'I've said this line 90 times and it's not even usable now because I've lost any emotion or sparkle in the eye'.
It's plain to see that Arterton is proud of her latest piece of work, but then she is the first to confess that she never really saw herself as a Hollywood movie star."If I'm really honest I never imagined myself in those Hollywood movies but I got offered them and thought, 'Well, I'd better do them then as they're big opportunities and a lot of fun.' Then, when I did, I rode the wave. But my heart's in the type of films that I go to see at the cinema, and they're not Hollywood blockbusters particularly.

"I've not got anything against them – I'm in them", she laughs. "But I don't go and spend my money on them. I'd much rather see this kind of movie. That's what's in my DVD collection." Source: Edinburgh Evening News
