‘Lone Ranger’ remake on the way from Disney
March 28, 2008
Writers Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio are going from “shiver me timbers!” to “Hi-yo Silver!” The writing duo, best known for their work on the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films, are in final negotiations to write a live-action big-screen adaptation of “The Lone Ranger” for Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer. The project will be made by Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer Films in association with Entertainment Rights. “Ranger,” owned by Classic Media, began life as a 1930s radio show. Its popularity led to movie serials, TV shows, comic strips and comic books, toys, novels and more.
