While most of the focus on Gore Verbinski’s upcoming full-length adaptation of The Lone Ranger has focused on Johnny Depp’s pasty-faced and eccentric take on the sidekick character of Tonto, news broke this week that another pale, oddball artist will be bringing his weirdness to The Lone Ranger—former White Stripes frontman Jack White.
The theater was filled with silhouettes of bobbing heads. Seats vibrated from uncontrollable foot tapping. Desperate latecomers stood in the back just happy to catch the world premiere of Davis Guggenheim‘s documentary It Might Get Loud.
Guggenheim is the Oscar winner director best known for An Inconvenient Truth. Before the screening Guggenheim thanked the crowd and told of his humble beginnings in film. Twenty years ago he packed up his car and drove down to LA and worked as a Production Assistant. His job was to drive the director around during the movie shoot. That director was Steven Soderbergh, and that movie was Sex, Lies, and Videotapes.
With the new Bond film, Quantum of Solace on it’s way (a little too late) the music scene is sure to get Bond off to the right start.
Check out the Jack White and Alicia Keys’ new video “Another Way to Die” for the film now:
