Los Angeles: Actor Armie Hammer, who plays Tonto in Gore Verbinski`s `The Lone Ranger`, says he is ready to go in for a second film if Disney gives it a go.
`The Lone Ranger`s` sequel talk has already begun and while Hammer confirmed he was up for a couple more, Johnny Depp isn`t sure if he will return, reported Aceshowbiz. "I think it was a one-shot deal," said Depp, who plays Native American warrior Tonto in the Disney movie. However, the two-time winner of People`s Sexiest Man Alive later said that there would be high chance of him returning to the next installment if it indeed moved forward. "If they started talking sequel on this I`d be ready to go in a second," he revealed. `The Lone Ranger` had its world premiere in Disney California Adventure Park in Anaheim. Director Verbinski brought along Hammer and Depp as well as co-stars William Fichtner and James Badge Dale to the event. Co-produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the Western flick is also supported by Tom Wilkinson, Helena Bonham Carter and Ruth Wilson, who revealed she had been secured for three films. PTI
