Animated “John Carter of Mars” movie scheduled for 2012.
You probably already knew about it. Thanks to skipping around Ain’t It Cool News, now I do to. The movie is going to be directed by Andrew Stanton – click on the name to see why the animation fanboy behind you is cooing, or just contemplate the mystical and wondrous Power Word: “Pixar” – but apparently it’s not going to be animated:
Discussing the move from fully 3-D animated movies to live-action, Stanton added: “I think that’s the only way. I mean, there are so many creatures and characters that half of it’s going to be CG whether you want it to be [or not], just to realise some of these images that are in the book. But it will feel real. The whole thing will feel very, very believable.” (more…)
, and is (to the best to my knowledge) in the public domain.
