New trailer for John Carter slays the Martian legions with Led Zeppelin

You've seen the brooding first trailer for Andrew Stanton's movie adaptation of Edgar Rice Burrough's Martian war tale John Carter. Now check out the much faster Led Zeppelin war-in-the-stars trailer.

The trailer debuted on Good Morning America today with the newly shorn Taylor Kitsch in tow. Here's a little peek, and there should be a high-res version released later today that we'll post ASAP. John Carter opens in theaters on March 9th, 2012. Here's the synopsis:

Transplanted to Mars, a Civil War vet discovers a lush planet inhabited by 12-foot tall barbarians. Finding himself a prisoner of these creatures, he escapes, only to encounter a princess who is in desperate need of a savior.
