I think i've had enough of Johnny Depp for my tastes. After his stint as Willy Wonka, it seems that his characters are all the same with different make-up. However, this is not why I have no interest in his latest project.
More to the reason is that Depp is not the main character of the film, yet he is being promoted as such in all the posters and trailers. The story is not Depp's and therefore this is misleading to the point that it mimics "Alice in Wonderland" where he played the Madd Hatter and was barely in it because it was not his story to be told. I feel the same thing is going on here.
Finally, I have seen nobody clammer for this movie to happen. Nobody has ever said they wish they would turn the old tv show into a modern film. This project seems to be coming out of nowhere and because of that, there is nothing pushing me to go see it. The topics are not current and the feel of the film is too old for even kids to connect with.
You have failed Lone Ranger.
