Lou... 3,118 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 No, correction, he's playing Tonto. Disney has picked Johnny Depp, or maybe the other way around, to portray Tonto in a big budget movie produced by Jerry Bruckheimer.That should be interesting. Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny Depp is an acquired taste. I have acquired it :D Link to post Share on other sites
Otter Spotter aka Debbie 58 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Yes...it will be interesting to see how J.D. develops the character. I hope he stays true to form out of respect for Clayton Moore. Now - who will they get to play Tonto? Link to post Share on other sites
stefa70 205 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Good Choice! Link to post Share on other sites
Total Joker ... TJ 203 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Now, I like Depp as an actor, but the Lone Ranger?? I think there was better choices the Depp. I was thinking someone a little more bulky to play it. DW says Mark Wahlberg would be a good choice. Link to post Share on other sites
SCTigerCock 171 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Good Choice!Maybe as a promotional they will hand out bandannas for that drool. :D Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyb aka John 15 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 According to what I heard today on the radio, and what I just looked up online, Johnny is going to be Tonto, and they haven't found the Lone Ranger yet.... I remember the story because they were complaining that he wasn't native american, so he shouldn't get the role.... Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted April 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 JohnnyB, I've read the entire story and you're right. JD will be Tonto. That's kinda strange. Big star playing the second fiddle role. I assumed by the headline below that JD was playing the leading role.Half Nelson star in talks to take role opposite Johnny Depp as Tonto in movie remake of the classic radio and TV series.Guardian Unlimited - April 19, 2011 By Ben Child guardian.co.uk Link to post Share on other sites

DW says Mark Wahlberg would be a good choice.The other day my teenage son asked me if I knew who Marky Marky was (didn't know that Mark Wahlberg and him were one and the same though until my son told me and showed me a 60 Minutes video). I left him speechless when I told him "Yes." It was actually pretty funny as I was quizzing him on his English Vocabulary words and he was just so shocked that I knew who he was and couldn't formulate a thought. I moved up a notch on the coolness rating that night. :rofl2: Link to post Share on other sites

ftwildernessrick 10 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Some remakes are just getting old.It's like, how many Robin Hoods, King Arthur, etc. can you have., not to mention vampire movies/shows. Some vampires die in the sunlight, some glitter - go figure.And was Johnny Depp a native pirate ? Link to post Share on other sites

AuburnJen 771 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Why is it that any time that Deep plays a character (with the exception of Jack Sparrow), I feel like I have partaken in an acid party? Link to post Share on other sites
mmfancipher 31 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 This seems to be suffering the same fate as John Carter of Mars. Disney doesn't know or understand how to market it, so will do a half-a$$ job of it and no one will see the movie. Link to post Share on other sites
alexwyattmommy 181 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 That trailer made absolutely NO sense. If you asked me what the plot or main idea was, I would have to tell you that the train is responsible for many deaths. Link to post Share on other sites
