Producer Jerry Bruckheimer revealed the official logo for Walt Disney Pictures? Lone Ranger on his new official website.

Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy director Gore Verbinski is signed to direct, reteaming with Johnny Depp. No word yet on who?ll play the Lone Ranger; Johnny Depp is set to play Tonto, the native warrior who finds the wounded ranger and keeps him alive.

The project was initially announced in 2007, with producer Jerry Bruckheimer and Pirates of the Caribbean/Shrek screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio penning the script. A year later, in 2008, it was revealed that Johnny Depp had been cast as Tonto, and George Clooney was rumored to be in talks to play the title character. Last summer it was rumored that Mike Newell (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Donnie Brasco, Prince of Persia) was in talks to direct, which clearly isn?t happening now. And in February, the mouse house hired Justin Haythe, who adapted Revolutionary Road, to pen a draft. Haythe was most recently working with Walt Disney Pictures on McG?s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Captain Nemo before a recent change in staff put the project in turnaround.

Adapted from the 1930′s radio show, which later became a popular live-action television show in the 1950′s. The Lone Ranger is a masked Texas Ranger in the American Old West, who gallops about righting injustices, usually with the aid of a clever and laconic American Indian sidekick called Tonto, and his horse Silver. He would famously say ?Hi-yo Silver, away!? to get the horse to gallop. Hollywood has tried to remake the Lone Ranger twice now, a 1981 film titled The Legend of the Lone Ranger and a 2003 WB television movie/pilot, both of which were not well accepted.

What if we go out of oxygen with all the explosions? Jerry Bruckheimer must be stopped.

I'm still holding my breath for Rin Tin Tin and Flipper remakes.

I'm surprised we haven't had makes of old crappy book like the Hardy Brothers or those damn cat murder mystery books from so long ago lol.
