Considering a trailer was shown at Comic Con, I’d hazard a guess that a trailer isn’t too far away for the rest of us when it comes to The Lone Ranger. The video below features a windswept Johnny Depp and doesn’t give anything away, but at least you get a feel for the character, as the makeup here is rather brilliant! Besides Depp, Arnie Hammer will play the Lone Ranger and combined with a rather decent supporting cast including Helena Bonham Carter and William Fichtner and a budget of a rumour $215 million, this promises to be something great…on paper at least. Fingers crossed.
Synopsis: “The Lone Ranger” is a thrilling adventure infused with action and humor, in which the famed masked hero is brought to life through new eyes. Native American spirit warrior Tonto (Johnny Depp) recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid (Armie Hammer), a man of the law, into a legend of justice—taking the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption.
Released: July 3rd (USA) / July 5th (IRE&UK)
