Armie Hammer Is Badass

I have not been quite that excited about the upcoming The Lone Ranger. Until now.

Wanna know what changed my mind or, actually, who?

Armie Hammer.

The handsome blond who plays the titular role is badass.

Like total badass.

Really-did-his-own-badass-stunts badass.

Check him out shooting this insane sequence for the movie atop a quite-precarious-looking platform overlooking a 2,000-foot drop on the edge of Dead Horse Point in Utah.

And why is Johnny Depp’s name above the title and not Hammer’s again?

Oh, it’s not anymore? Good.
