The excitement just doesn't seem to stop at the Walt Disney Showcase at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood today. Not too long ago, the USC Marching Band began playing the William Tell Overture and none other than Johnny Depp himself came walking out onto the stage, revealing two new projects with just his outfit alone.
He came strolling out onto the stage wearing his full Captain Jack Sparrow costume from
Pirates of the Caribbean AND he was wearing the mask of
The Lone Ranger as well!
Depp confirmed that he has indeed signed on for both Jerry Bruckheimer's
The Lone Ranger and
Pirates of the Caribbean 4 to boot.
UPDATE: Disney has just confirmed that Depp in fact is officially signed on to play Tonto in the
The Lone Ranger film and not the
The Lone Ranger himself.
We'll have more on these amazing developments as soon as more information comes through from this event.

but more in the tone of the first one...i don't want to see some captain with tentacles .. so lets hope for the best.
As for the LR, they will probably have to cast an unknown actor for the role with a high profile star like depp as the "sidekick". Depp as clooney's sidekick sounds about as exciting as Clooney-O'Donnell. man i hope they're smart in casting TLR.
Also, I don't mean to be mean with anything, but there was enough venom in your last comment to spark a little of my OWN venom.
