Carter of Mars on hold
by Doc on May.05, 2006, under Movies
Although things were moving forward, director Jon Favreau’s John Carter of Mars project has been put on the back burner by the studio. Paramount is already putting out Favreau’s Iron Man adaptation, and is also pushing ahead with the J.J. Abrahms-led Star Trek XI, along with some other SF related properties, “and they don’t think the timing is right,” according for Favreau. “And, hopefully, by continuing my relationship with them, by doing this Iron Man film, I’ll leave the door wide open for Carter, which is a much more challenging property.”
