UPDATE 4/23/12: Depp confirms it was his eye that spotted the inspiration for his Tonto look.
I’d actually seen a painting by an artist named Kirby Sattler, and looked at the face of this warrior and thought: That’s it. The stripes down the face and across the eyes … it seemed to me like you could almost see the separate sections of the individual, if you know what I mean. There’s this very wise quarter, a very tortured and hurt section, an angry and rageful section, and a very understanding and unique side. I saw these parts, almost like dissecting a brain, these slivers of the individual. That makeup inspired me.
Jerry Bruckheimer’s official spokes-dude and media strategist duties roll on as he tweets the above dusty rails from the New Mexico desert to the world.
This week The Lone Ranger AKA Armie Hammer, opened wide on the big screen, flexing his Prince Charming with NM res. Julia Roberts in “Mirror Mirror”. In an interview with the Huff. Po. the prince turned masked man dishes on licking Roberts-Moder as a hello handshake AND spills Lone Ranger script deets:
“It’s basically going to be the genesis of the The Lone Ranger character. It involves how he sort of becomes The Lone Ranger. Where the mask comes from — you know, all those great sort of backstory questions about the character. So, yes, this movie definitely answers all of those. And then, on top of that, it’s a fantastic sort of like buddy adventure. Most of the movie is really about the relationship between The Lone Ranger and Tonto [played in the film by Johnny Depp]. And the sort of rub between these two guys: where they get along, where they don’t, where they agree, where they disagree. It’s a fun, sort of buddy adventure comedy.”
Meanwhile, nary a public werd or a hide nor hair of the elusive “Tonto” himself. Some locals have reported on him dining in the Q – otherwise nada mas except confirmation that he’s been ensconced at the studio hard at work. Helena on the other hand has been spied doing some healthful food shopping at the ABQ Uptown Trader Joe’s and she was reportedly quite lovely at airport security…
SO THEY DO GO THROUGH our local airport terminals…as we pondered here, where one of our talented friends pointed out, the Bruckheimer/Verbinski version of Tonto bears a striking resemblance to Albuquerque icon, our own Dream of Flight sculpture, as regally perched for all the incoming world to see in the Albuquerque International Airport.
In recently perusing Native American artistry we did happen across this gorgeous Kirby Sattler painting, “I am Crow”, which in reference to pop-culture looks not unlike an age progression of the aforementioned “vision” of Depp’s Tonto.
For any and all its artistic inspiration, long lived legend and contemporary star power we have high hopes for this modern day adaptation. Most especially as it is rooted right here, quite literally in our own expansive NM backyard.
As we’ve been telling you since last May, most definitely riding into New Mexico is our very own Lone Ranger.
THIS is Armie Hammer, the guy who’s so hot they spliced him into TWO hot guys for The Social Network.
From Student #2 in Arrested Development to his role as “Prince Charming” (what elese) in the upcoming film Mirror Mirror…also starring NM’s Own Julia Roberts, the L.A. native has been scoring role after role, before landing in the saddle as everyone’s favorite masked man.
The Lone Ranger is in pre-production now right here in New Mexico! If you’ve just arrived on the planet Armie, takes the reins alongside none other than Johnny Depp as Tonto. Film is set to roll before the month is out!
Juxtaposition be thy name of the Forbes 2011 Highest Paid Actresses list.
Atop the list of our utmost paid ~ingénues are the UN ambassador, née Jolie Angelina and Garnier Nutrisse ≠séductrice SJP!
Boys (XY) still out earn the Girls (XX), but top earnings seem to be on the rise…as New Mexico’s Own Julia Roberts formerly and frequently stood at the front of the pack with $20M per year, still holds steady there, now out-earned by Jolie and Parker by $10M respectively…
Okay…these figures are beginning to make me retch…as the Average Joe regularly sneezes out or sluffs off more than I make at this gig ;)
Anywho…the bulk of the list for you too to gag upon (including the woman who comes in 3rd still riding on the coattails of association to others….and 4th who is second to none) AFTER THE JUMP – xo! » Read the full post
No one has rocked the hooker with the heart of gold role like our own Julia Roberts. From that Disney Classic that burst her on to the world’s radar to her seclusion here on the mountain range of Taos, NM the public loves us some Julia.
UPDATE 1/26/11: According to multiple outlets, including the LA Times, Penny and Javie have welcomed a son into the world! ¡Felicidades!
Penny Cruz/Javier Bardem/Progeny Projections
Besides both having starred in New Mexico movies (All the Pretty Horses & No Country for Old Men) and a pair of Oscars between them…
Penelope “I told my father we were lovers,” Cruz and Javier “Friendo” Bardem have congealed their DNA and now the world wonders what that co-mingling will yield.
Thanks to the fun and good times found at Morph Thing we have a visual guesstimate of the {adorbs} offspring soon to be and down the road. Congratulations & best wishes!
Here’s Bardem (below) in Spain last night, with NM res. Julia Roberts for the Eat Pray Love premiere, fielding a rush of questions re: the “very happy” news! – via the Daily News/Getty Images

The buzz-buzz is that Favs brought HARRISON FORD to his first Comic-Con experience to participate in the Cowboys and Aliens panel this evening…How did Han Solo never go to Comic Con before? Stud.
Daniel Craig, Olivia Wilde and Sam Rockwell also appeared. The NM shoot is getting lots o’buzz as Favreau says C&A will be back for Comic Con 2011 just before the release of the much anticipated film – which, as was just disclosed will be in 2 Dimensions…Favs said, “f*ck it” after early digital test shoots.
Just a few weeks into filming the Cowboys ensemble did not disappoint – even bringing a preview reel of the movie that brought the crowd to its feet.
Woot!

They say picture is worth a thousand words, but if you’re Julia Roberts it’s more like $20 mil. and she can do pretty much anything she wants. In this age of gratuitous reboot Julia Gulia has taken a stand and said pass to the poss. of a Pretty Woman part deux.
Jules was ~recently quoted as saying she’s “too old” to come back to the silver screen as everyone’s favorite hooker with a heart of gold.
But NM’s Own eternally gorgeous woman et al can relish a Romantic Comedy (Ro-co) at any age, frankly the more mature the better…that’s why waaay back in ’03 I myself penned an entire script around one of my fave Roberts Ro-cos.
And here’s the mock-up of the movie poster of our dream cast for the follow-up flick. Note the artistry in the head cropping, inspired by the original PW poster that was famously and similarly doctored.
As for the script, it is here in whole form, filed away; where it has been since it made its rounds to some Roberts-Moder representative in Taos, then up to an NYC production co. who politely returned it to us non grata – WOW gotta love “the business”, even that was an exciting day at the ~office!
Well, if and when she’s ready the story in its entirety is here for her, fait accompli – Jules, Mr. Marshall, Anybody, Anybody…
”My angel, the love of my life.” -Brad Pitt on (eww) Gwyneth Paltrow
“You’re my backbone. You’re a blessing. “You’re a piece of my heart. You’re the air I breathe. And you’re the strongest person I know…” -Kobe Bryant
“Making love to Angelina was like making love to a couch.” -Billy Bob Thornton
“Can You Doubt We Were Made for Each Other?” -Lyle Lovett on Julia Roberts
“I cheated on her with Kim, but it wasn’t cheating to me.” -Sean Combs on Jennifer Lopez
“I broke up with my Italian boyfriend and two weeks later he was sent to prison for fraud. I mean, we’ve all been there. Am I right ladies?” -Anne Hathaway
Julia isi petrece marea parte a timpului liber la ferma sa din New Mexico cu Danny sigemenii…
NM’s Own Pretty Woman had ‘em squawkin’ from Deutschland to Ireland over her racy Valentines Day advice to a perky reporter during a press stop for her latest film of the same name.
Jules’ advice was simple, as is the general male of the species she may have unwittingly implied when suggesting, dinner, a drink and “take your top off!”
Above is the artfully photoshopped melding of two of NM’s Own, a certain Roswell native, a-topped with Jules’ head to really drive home the message.
The incomparable, veteran actress and fellow New Mexican Shirley MacLaine also stars in the new Gary Marshall film which opens February 12.
p.s. Demi doesn’t actually appear in the Valentine’s Day movie, but she lends her cub to dull the ache of watching scenes with Miseralba.
No one has rocked the hooker with the heart of gold role like our own Julia Roberts. From that Disney Classic that burst her on to the world’s radar to her seclusion here on the mountain range of Taos, NM the public loves us some Julia.
