New Images from The Lone Ranger Starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer

After 150 days, filming has wrapped on Gore Verbinski‘s The Lone Ranger. It hasn’t been an easy production, which was delayed due to budget concerns. THR reports that once shooting finally began, the production was beset by dust and wind storms, the on-set death of a welder, and Johnny Depp sustaining an injury, all of which reportedly caused the budget to balloon back to the $250 million (or more) Disney wanted to avoid. While studios are doing their best to try and be more careful with what they spend, Verbinski’s blockbusters have never been cheap, although I’m not sure why a western would cost so much even with the delays (the original budget was $215 million).
