2. The New Face


Sam Worthington


Hi Ho! Sam's going to me a massive star and he's proved that he's prepared to put on ridiculous outfits by signing on for Clash Of The Titans. And we reckon Worthington would be the ultimate straight man to Depp's inevitable wacky take on Tonto. Jerry would be lucky to get him.

Hi No! He's already got the blockbuster section of his CV pretty covered - Terminator Salvation, Avatar and Clash Of The Titans will all have opened before Ranger.

If Jerry came to him with a contract, Sam would probably ask James Cameron to direct him bashing Bruckheimer with Terminator skulls until he went away. In 3D.
