Director Gore Verbinski may of finally found his Lone Ranger in BLUE VALENTINE Ryan Gosling.
The actor is in talks for Disney’s THE LONE RANGER which has already cast Johnny Depp as the Ranger’s devoted sidekick Tonto. Depp had previously mentioned some other, bigger, names for the film including George Clooney and Brad Pitt which would of been pretty cool, especially since Depp has never starred in a film with either of those actors.
Of course, like everything in Hollywood, nothing is set in stone as Gosling’s schedule is pretty packed with the actor in pre-production on two big films, THE GANGSTER SQUAD and LOGAN’S RUN. Gosling though would be an excellent choice and finally put him on the top of the Hollywood mountain.
