John Carter
Lost in our world, found in another.
Directed by Andrew Stanton
Produced by Walt Disney Pictures
A sweeping planetary adventure that blends 19th-century pulp sensibilities with sci-fi spectacle, following a war-weary soldier's redemptive journey on an alien world.
John Carter is a war-weary, former military captain who's inexplicably transported to the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars) and reluctantly becomes embroiled in an epic conflict. It's a world on the brink of collapse, and Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.
