It was distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. Filming started early in March 2012. It was released on June 22, 2013. '''[[Lone Ranger (2013)|Read More...]]''' {{HeadingA|A Brief History of the Lone Ranger}} The [[Lone Ranger]] made his debut on radio February 2, 1933. The radio series ran until September 3, 1954. It produced somewhere between 2,900 and 3,100 episodes (reports vary). The radio series was enormously successful and the Lone Ranger spun off into other media. Lone Ranger creator [[Fran Striker]] published 18 [[List of Lone Ranger Novels|Lone Ranger novels]] from 1936-1956. Two film serials were produced (though these do not follow the accepted story of the Ranger) in [[The Lone Ranger (1938 Serial)|1938]] and [[The Lone Ranger Rides Again|1939]]. A Lone Ranger daily newspaper strip ran from September 1938 until December 1971. Dell comics ran 145 issues from 1948-1962, plus 4 special issues, a [[Tonto]] spin-off series and a [[Silver]] spin-off series. Gold Key took over the comics and published 28 issues from 1964-1977. The most popular and successful interpretation of the character was, of course, the television series. Starring [[Clayton Moore]] as the Lone Ranger and [[Jay Silverheels]] as Tonto (with [[John Hart]] replacing Moore for season 3), the Lone Ranger TV show ran from September 15, 1949 until June 6, 1957, and ran heavily in reruns until the 1980s. The series produced [[List of Lone Ranger TV Episodes|221 original episodes]], and Moore and Silverheels starred in two big screen Lone Ranger feature films: β[[The Lone Ranger (1956 Film)|The Lone Ranger]]β in 1956 and β[[The Lone Ranger and the Lost City of Gold]]β in 1958. There were also two Lone Ranger animated series, one in 1966 and one in 1980-1981 (as part of the Tarzan/Lone Ranger/Zorro Adventure Hour). After 1981βs poorly received β[[The Legend of the Lone Ranger]]β feature, starring [[Klinton Spilsbury]] and [[Michael Horse]], the character kind of faded away from the mainstream. That film suffered tremendously before it was ever released. Clayton Moore had been making personal appearances in the Lone Ranger costume since the TV show debuted. The producers of the new movie didnβt want two Lone Rangers running around, so they took legal action to prevent Moore from appearing with the Ranger mask on. This was a PR disaster and really hurt the new movie before it was even complete. In 1994 Topps Comics tried to revive the character with a 4 issue mini-series, but had limited success. In 2003 the WB produced a 2-hour [[The Lone Ranger (2003 TV Movie)|Lone Ranger TV movie]] that was supposed to be a series pilot. The producers changed the story so much it was barely recognizable, and heavily targeted their story toward the βDawsonβs Creekβ fanbase. That movie was also very poorly received, and a new series never produced. In September 2006 Dynamite Entertainment released their critically acclaimed new Lone Ranger comic series. Then, in 2008 [[Jerry Bruckheimer]] and [[Walt Disney Productions|Disney]] revealed plans for a [[Films:Walt Disney's Lone Ranger|new feature film]], starring [[Johnny Depp]] as Tonto and [[Armie Hammer]] as the Lone Ranger. {{HeadingA|Helping Out}} To write a new article, just enter the article title in the box below. <inputbox> type=create width=24 break=no buttonlabel=Create new article </inputbox> ; Not sure where to start? * Find out more about the wiki on the '''[[Project:About|About]]''' page. * If you are new to wikis, check out the '''[[Help:Tutorial 1|tutorial]]''', and see [[Help:Contents]]. * Check out '''[[Help:Starting this wiki]]''' if you're setting up the wiki. ; Adding content * Every wiki has two list of articles that need help called '''[[:Category:Article stubs|"Stubs"]]''' and '''[[Special:Wantedpages|"Wanted Articles"]]'''.
