Trailer Time: John Carter, starring Taylor Kitsch and Samantha Morton

I've been unable to wrap my brain around John Carter(formerly John Carter of Mars), Disney's sci-fi adventure film based on the works of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Directed by Pixar's Andrew Stanton(Wall-E), it stars Taylor Kitsch as the titular soldier who gets whisked away to Mars and becomes a warrior stuck between two clashing civilizations. The new trailer released looks great, with an old school sci-fi feel to it. The only thing missing is a bit better context, like what the point of the opening period piece moments. But this is a teaser, and so we'll likely get more substance in future trailers.



John Carter stars Taylor Kitsch, Samantha Morton, Dominic West, Polly Walker, Bryan Cranston, Willem Dafoe, Lynn Collins, James Purefoy, Ciaran Hinds, Mark Strong, Daryl Sabara, and Thomas Haden Church. Phew! Look for it on March 9th 2012!
