Samantha Morton, Dominic West and Polly Walker Join John Carter of Mars
Three more actors have joined Andrew Stanton's big screen adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars: Samantha Morton (In America, Control), Dominic West (300, Chicago) and Polly Walker (Patriot Games).
Morton, West and Walker join Taylor Kitsch (Wolverine, Friday Night Lights), Lynn Collins (X-Men Origins: Wolverine, True Blood), and Willem Dafoe in the Walt Disney Pictures production. Based on A Princess of Mars, which was first published in 1917, the movie will follow Civil War vet John Carter (Kitsch), who is transplanted to Mars, where he discovers a lush, wildly diverse planet whose main inhabitants are 12-foot tall green barbarians. Finding himself a prisoner of these creatures, he escapes, only to encounter Dejah Thoris (Collins), Princess of Helium, who is in desperate need of a savior and Tars Tarkas (Dafoe), a brutal and mirthless green Martian warrior, who possesses the unusual characteristic to feel love and empathy.

I Love You, Man Trailer Starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel
Wednesday, December 17, 2008 10:14 AM | From Film Junk
Well, I think the bromantic comedy is now officially a genre, and I Love You, Man is the movie that settles it. Written and directed by John Hamburg (Along Came Polly), the flick is about a metrosexual guy (Paul Rudd) who has a lot of girl friends, but no close guy friends. When it comes [...]
Dreamworks has released the official movie trailer for Along Came Polly director John Hamburg’s new comedy I Love You, Man, which stars Paul Rudd as a newly engaged guy sets out to find the perfect “Best Man” for his wedding. The film costars Jason Segel, Jaime Pressly, Andy Samberg, Jon Favreau, and Rashida Jones. I’m a big fan of many of the actors involved, but I just didn’t find the trailer all that funny. I also wasn’t a fan of Along Came Polly either. Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
