Jerry Bruckheimer gives a production update on The Lone Ranger
Disney’s The Lone Ranger adaptation may have taken its sweet time in getting to the production stage, but after much budgetary wrangling and hard graft, principal photography on the project has nearly been completed…
Armie Hammer will saddle up as the Lone Ranger
Social Network actor Armie Hammer has landed the lead role in Disney’s new movie version of The Lone Ranger.
After numerous casting rumours had suggested Ryan Gosling would be taking the role, Hammer was emerged as the victorious party – no doubt in part thanks to his stellar work in David Fincher’s film.
Based on the 1930s radio show and ‘40s TV series, Lone Ranger follows the titular hero and his sidekick Tonto, who combat injustice in the Old West.
Armie Hammer up for playing The Lone Ranger
The Social Network star Armie Hammer is currently in talks to join Johnny Depp in his film adaptation of The Lone Ranger. Hammer is interested in playing the titular ranger, the same role that Ryan Gosling previously flirted with before he was forced to bail thanks to scheduling conflicts. Depp has been attached to the film for some time, and will play Tonto, the Native American companion to the ranger.
