The Sherlock Holmes villian talks about playing Matai Shan in the upcoming Andrew Stanton epic
The actor said about his part:
There's some filming in Utah, but most of it is in a studio outside of London. My character doesn't actually get involved in any of the motion-capture stuff. All the stuff is live action. Although I can shift my shape, so I have to be photographed by a 360-degree camera. I can adapt into anything. That's going to be my particular talent. [I ask what he'll transform into] Other human beings mainly.

John Carter comes to theaters March 9th, 2012 and stars Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, Bryan Cranston, Mark Strong, Willem Dafoe, Ciarán Hinds, Dominic West, Thomas Haden Church. The film is directed by Andrew Stanton.

I think this movie will either be a punch of dudes in clunky space suits hoping around on a barren planet.
Or a man with a sword and a loin cloth emerges on Mars where there is lack of oxygen and dies withing seconds. Roll credits. OSCAR NOW, PLEASE!
