JOHN CARTER - 10 Minute Clip Arrives

Walt Disney Pictures has sent us a 10-minute clip for John Carter. Andrew Stanton (Wall-E) wrote and directed this sci-fi action adventure that stars Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, Samantha Morton, Mark Strong, Ciaran Hinds, Dominic West, James Purefoy, Polly Walker, Thomas Haden Church, and Willem Dafoe.

The clip below shows a young version of Edgar Rice Burroughs (played by Daryl Sabara) and it sets the films story in motion. I am very excited to see this movie and think there will be a nice mix of action, sci-fi and even some comedy.

Watch it below and share your thoughts, does this ten minute clip help sell you on seeing this movie? 

Here is the official synopsis:

From Academy Award(R)-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 arrives in theaters on March 9th.
