After releasing a cool five minute clip, Walt Disney Pictures released a new ten minute clip from the upcoming science fiction movie “John Carter.â€
The clip featured Edgar Rice Burroughs (played by Daryl Sabara) reading a private journal from John Carter (played by Taylor Kitsch) to uncover the disappearance of Carter. It then proceeded to a flash back scene of Carter at the Arizona’s territory Fort Grant Outpost in 1868. The military tried to recruit former veteran to reenlist Carter to fight the Indians.
The film also starred Lynn Collins, Samantha Morton, Willem Dafoe, Thomas Haden Church, Mark Strong, Dominic West, Bryan Cranston and James Purefoy.
Here is the Disney official synopsis of the film:
From Academy Award®–winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton comes John Carter—a sweeping action-adventure set on the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars). John Carter is based on a classic novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, whose highly imaginative adventures served as inspiration for many filmmakers, both past and present. The film tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet, including Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe) and the captivating Princess Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.
“John Carter†will be in theaters next Friday on March 9.
