Hammer and Depp as THE LONE RANGER and Tonto

Jerry Bruckheimer just Tweeted the first official image of Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp in character from Disney's upcoming The Lone Ranger movie:

Oooh-kaaaaay. That's certainly a bold turn away from what I guess everyone was expecting. I don't know which is the bigger shock: the Lone Ranger wearing black or Johnny Depp apparently trying to simultaneously channel Captain Jack Sparrow and Alice Cooper.

But hey, this movie can't possibly be worse than the last time a Lone Ranger film was attempted, right?
