However, he didn't disclose what those plans were or what the sequels would look like. The first film ends with Carter returning to Mars after faking his death, tricking Shang, and winning an old challenge that kept him trapped on Earth.ĭuring the months leading up to John Carter's 2012 release, Stanton mentioned on several occasions that he had plans for sequels in the event that the first film was a success. The shape shifting Therns, led by Matai Shang ( Mark Strong), complicate things further, leading to a deadly conflict on many fronts. Unbeknownst to Carter, civil unrest between the various Martian races is escalating, with Red Martian princess Dejah Thoris ( Lynn Collins) caught in the middle with him. The profoundly lost human soldier soon finds himself face-to-face with the Green Martians, called Tharks, led by Tars Tarkas ( Willem Dafoe). Upon arriving on Mars (referred to as Barsoom by its inhabitants), Carter discovers that his bone density, coupled with the planet's low gravity, grant him enhanced physical capabilities.
For those who haven't seen the original or need a refresher, the gist of the first movie is this: The plot takes place between 18, when Confederate Army captain John Carter (portrayed by Taylor Kitsch) accidentally transports himself to Mars with an alien medallion he finds while fleeing Union soldiers.
