A new John Carter animated TV show is in the works, with the first look expected to be unveil💖ed today (July 24)ꦉ at San Diego Comic-Con (via ).

The show will be based on the Barsoom novels by pulp author Edgar Rice Burroughs, which follows the titular Civil W🐼ar veteran as he's mysteriously transported to Mars and meets the princess Dejah Thoris.

The first installment in the series, A Princess of Mars, was published all the way back in 1917, and ten sequels followed over the next 30 years. They've had a huge impact on the science fiction genre, with everyone from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:James Cameron to Ray Bradbury citing B♌urroughs as an influence.

"In this era of incredible animation, with shows like Castlevania, Blood of Zeus, and Twilight of the Gods pushing the genre of fantasy action-adventure to new heights, there couldn’t be a better time for the Martian saga of John Carter and Princess Dejah Thoris to be told through bold, ground-breaking animation," sh🅘owrunner Michael Kogge said in a statement.

The Barsoom novels were last adapted for the screen by Disney in 2012 with the movie John Carter. Taylor Kitsch starred as Carter, alongside a supporting cast that included Samantha Morton, Mark S🍸trong, Ciarán Hinds, Dominic West, and Willem Dafoe.

Directed by Finding Nemo and WALL-E helmer A♔ndrew St𝓀anton in his live-action debut, John Carter lost $200 million for Disney at the box office and became one of the biggest movie flops of all time.
