    Yes, there's a Lone Ranger movie in pre-production right now at Disney. Jerry Bruckheimer, who produced Pirates is the producer. The irony of this situation is Disney used to own the Lone Ranger character when it bought the Wrather Corporation back in the late Eighties and then sold off all the properties to reduce the cost of the purchase. Now they're going to be paying a large licensing fee for a character they could have not had to pay anything for. Another short sighted decision from Eisner.
