[...] that the franchise will continue, with the original cast intact. Well even though Johnny Depp is reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow, it appears that Keira Knightley won’t be returning as Miss Swann, or as anyone else for that [...]

I am relieved to hear that they are going to do one more Pirates…I was so angry at the ending of the ‘At Worlds End’, that Captain Jack was once again without his ‘Pearl’. All I am going to say about the Pirates movies is this..Do this one as the last one and wrap up the loose ends (i.e. CJ and the Pearl, Will & Elizabeth, and Calypso and the Dutchman).
In regards to Depp playing Tonto, I believe that to be a good choice. After seening Depp in ‘the Brave’, I know he will bring his best as always. I will be estatic if they cast Viggo as the Lone Ranger. I have been wanting Mortensen and Depp to work together for a long time. If the two of them have not met before, it would sure be a meeting I would give the world to see. I believe these two fringe actors have many similarities of views.

Although I love Depp, Pirates of the Caribbean seems to be dragging on for too long in my opinion. I am no longer excited to see any of those movies. I will, however, end up watching it at some point…which is more than I can say for Spiderman 4.

As for the ‘Lone Ranger’, my choice for lead would be Brad Pitt … he would make one good-looking cowboy

Oh, and Rob, what is this ‘new direction’ that Pirates is taking?

Well, at first the thought of a studio wanting to make Johnny Depp the side-kick felt silly if they wanted to make much money; however, I think the Loneranger crowd ( older males ) might like seeing him take his place as a side character to a more masculine protagonist.

That said–as mentioned in another topic ( I think the Riddler rumour ) that Depp brings a certain amount of femininity to his roles begs Village People jokes about his playing of Tonto.

Final notes: Whoever they get to play The Lone Ranger should just go ahead and play Captain America aswell if it is a success– and can anyone else picture Depp saying “Kemosabe” without laughing?
