How The West Was Almost Lost: Inside Near-Death Experience Of ‘The Lone Ranger’

[This is the full story of how The Lone Ranger was made …and financed.]

Conclusion...
The release date shifted once more, from May 31st to Fourth of July weekend, but even with the extra time, it was still a nightmare to complete. When introducing the film at the first public screening in New Mexico, Verbinski spoke to the scale of the production saying, “Sometimes 700 people were working on this thing.” (In the summer of 2012, an extensive Hollywood Reporter piece stated that delays due to sandstorms and other production hiccups caused the budget to creep back up to the $250 million Disney was trying to avoid.) The screening in New Mexico was the end of a very long journey for the film, one that many thought would never actually see the light of day. But just like the Lone Ranger himself, the movie rose from the dead.

As always Jerry Bruckheimer said it best when he told us: “We trimmed back a lot of stuff that I don’t think you’ll miss, because it’s still a pretty big movie.”
