Speaking to
SuperHeroHype, Lynn Collins (Dejah Toris) and Thomas Haden Church (Tal Hajus) both talk about their upcoming film
John Carter, based on the characters created by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Collins says that she's seen 'bits' of the movie so far, and praises the story as 'emotional, visceral, physical', as well as director Andrew Stanton's storytelling. Meanwhile, Haden Church says that he's 'almost unrecognizable' as Thark warrior Tal Hajus.
Lynn Collins on John Carter's storytelling and how much of the film she's seen...
I've seen bits. I think that there is a story that's about to be told that hopefully people will latch onto in an emotional, visceral, physical way. I just think it has so much to offer and Andrew Stanton is just one of the best storytellers we have out there. Pixar is very specific and I think they have their process and Disney is really allowing them to have their process, so things are coming out slowly.
Thomas Haden Church on his character in the film...
I am almost unrecognizable," he told us. "Willem Dafoe and myself and Samantha Morton are all in the same tribe of Martian inhabitants, and yeah, it's that kind of a role that sprang out of a lot of the morphing of human and xenomorph that you saw in 'Avatar.'
John Carter hits theaters March 9th, 2012.
