Disney wraps up Mars movie shooting in Utah

This article comes to us from the Standard-Examiner in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Principal photography is now completed in Utah for The Walt Disney Studios’ upcoming feature film, “John Carter of Mars,” being directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton (Finding Nemo, WallE), and produced by Colin Wilson (Avatar).

Filmed throughout Southern Utah in the areas of Big Water, Kanab, Hanksville, Delta and Moab, the production created 300 jobs over a 120-day period, and brought $21 million into several rural Utah economies.


“As Governor, I am particularly happy that Utah has been host to the recently completed production of ‘John Carter of Mars’ during the past year. The book series was a favorite of mine when I was young, and I can’t wait to see the finished film,” Governor Gary R. Herbert said.

“This project has stimulated the state’s local economies at a critical time and provided hundreds of jobs for Utah’s film professionals.”
