Bruckheimer’s Lone Ranger May Have A Director


Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels as The Lone Ranger and Tonto

I remember watching The Lone Ranger on TV, the classic show that was adapted from George W. Trendle’s classic old-time radio show. I still listen to the replays of the old 1930’s radio show today on SIRIUS Satellite Radio.

“A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust, and a hearty ‘Hi-yo, Silver!’, The Lone Ranger!“

Oh yea. Those are good memories. Listening to the radio show has its own merits. If you’re a regular long time reader of Screen Rant, then you also know that there are efforts afoot to get a modern day version of The Lone Ranger on the silver screen.

George Clooney As The Lone Ranger?

When news broke earlier in the week that Johnny Depp would be playing Tonto in Jerry Bruickheimer’s The Lone Ranger, quite a few people thought that it would be difficult to find an actor to ride along side Depp and hold his own as the iconic titular character.

Now Ain’t It Cool has a scoop saying that George Clooney has shown a keen interest in the role of The Lone Ranger. However, would the blockbuster-shy Clooney be interested in starring in such a blatantly commercial film?

Keep reading to find out.

Johnny Depp As Captain Jack Tonto With A Mad Hat…

In July, Screen Rant brought you news about everybody’s favorite bizarre-character actor, Johnny Deep being cast as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland. This came as no big surprise since Burton and Depp are married, err… I mean close friends in a business-sense sort of way. They are well known as one of the biggest and longest running director-actor relationships in the industry and this will be their 7th feature film together.

Jerry Bruckheimer Says Hi Ho Silver

Jerry Bruckheimer Says Hi Ho Silver

Despite a few recent attempts at resurrecting The Lone Ranger by others, director Jerry Bruckheimer will be taking a swing at the legendary hero of yesteryear to see if he can succeed where others have failed.

With the flair I’ve come to enjoy from Bruckheimer, The Lone Ranger could turn out to be good. It’s being written by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, who have penned a few things in the past, including Aladdin, Shrek and Pirates of the Caribbean.
