ORLANDO BLOOM - BLOOM TO GET $40 MILLION PAYCHECK? NOT ON YOUR LIFE, SAYS DISNEY

An on-its-face laughable report that Orlando Bloom would receive $40 million to star in a movie based on the video game Prince of Persia spread all over the Internet Monday until Disney got wind of it and attempted to stomp it out. Late in the day, the website Coming Soon reported that the studio said that there was no truth to the report. "What we do know so far is that Mike Newell (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) is expected to start shooting Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time soon at Pinewood Studios in the UK and in Morocco as well," the website added.
