Jon Favreau has been tapped to direct the movie version of John Carter, Warlord of Mars, a character created by Arthur Conan Doyle (Tarzan).
The story of John Carter, a Confederate officer whisked away to Mars where he uses newly found super-strength and agility to fight four-armed aggressors, has been adapted in comics by both DC and Marvel over the years.
Favreau played Foggy Nelson in the Daredevil movie.
