John Carter 2: The Return to Barsoom (2025) teaser begins with a haunting, soft piano melody that plays over a dark screen. Slowly, the red sands of Mars begin to blow across the frame, revealing the familiar Martian landscape under two looming moons. As the music intensifies, we hear the deep, resonant voice of Dejah Thoris (played by Lynn Collins) narrating: “A warrior once came to save us… but our battles are far from over.”
The scene cuts to a brief, shadowy glimpse of John Carter (played by Taylor Kitsch), now looking more seasoned and weary, standing at the edge of a cliff, overlooking a massive Martian city glowing in the twilight. The visuals are stunning, with glimpses of vast alien cities, mysterious artifacts, and quick shots of epic combat. Taylor Kitsch, as John Carter, is shown charging into battle once more, wielding his sword against formidable enemies.
The teaser gives a glimpse of new threats: a towering, armored warlord, ominous airships hovering over a battlefield, and a new alien race with glowing blue eyes and strange technology. Lynn Collins’ Dejah Thoris is seen leading a rebellion, rallying her people for the coming conflict.
The screen fades to black with a final whisper from John Carter: “I’ve been gone too long…” followed by the quick flash of the title card, “John Carter 2: The Return to Barsoom.” The teaser ends with the words “Coming 2025,” leaving viewers excited and speculating about the return of the beloved sci-fi hero and the next chapter of his saga on the red planet.
