Willem Dafoe is out on the publicity rounds for Daybreakers, and fielding questions from i09 about Andrew Stanton's John Carter of Mars in which he'll be playing Tars Tarkas, a ten foot tall martian warrior.
There's some things he would talk about - "I saw [Stanton] recently because we start in London, for studio stuff. I start next week", "I think officially production starts the 18th", "[Stanton] showed me the different variations of how they will shoot it, the kind of equipment I'll have to wear, the different times I won't have to wear certain kinds of equipment and all that", ; and other things he wouldn't reveal, like whether or not he'll be wearing prosthetic arms or putting on a 'special voice'
Previously we expected shooting to start last November in Utah.
