"Pirates of the Caribbean" series Director Gore Verbinski and actor Johnny Depp are pairing up again for another film. But this time, its not swashbuckling pirates and high seas adventures for Depp, instead he will be playing Tonto to Armie Hammer's Lone Ranger. Fans, including myself, of the classic radio and television cowboy, have raised a huge red flag, and it is that Verbinski may attempt to rework the Lone Ranger story into a more unconventional adventure tale about a man whose sanity may be deeply in question.
The film is set to be released on December 21, 2012. Meaning the movie will be released a week after Peter Jackson's first installment of J.R.R. Tolkien's
The Hobbit. Quite honestly, this movie has me worried, worried that another classic character will be taken in a very wrong direction (i.e. Seth Rogen's
Green Hornet film). Thoughts people? Lets hear them.
