LOS ANGELES— Johnny Depp is coming to Las Vegas to talk to fans about “The Lone Ranger.”
Disney announced Thursday that Depp and co-star Armie Hammer will discuss the anticipated adventure film on April 17 after showing 20 minutes of exclusive footage to about 400 local fans at a neighborhood theater.
Director Gore Verbinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer will also participate in the question-and-answer session, which is set to stream live online on Yahoo! Movies and Livestream.
Film fans outside of Las Vegas can submit questions for “The Lone Ranger” team through Twitter and watch the film’s trailer online. The extended footage, though, is just for those in Las Vegas. “The Lone Ranger” releases July 3.
