Armie Hammer is riding away with the great roles lately.

Literally.

The actor, already cast as the prince in Relativity Media's upcoming "Snow White" project, 

has been cast opposite Johnny Depp in Disney's "The Lone Ranger." He's also starring with Leonardo DiCaprio in "J. Edgar," Warner Bros. J. Edgar Hoover biopic.

The trio of roles immediately makes Hammer, who played the Winklevoss twins in "The Social Network," one of the most important young actors in Hollywood.

"Lone Ranger" looks to be an interesting movie. Depp is playing Tonto and Gore Verbinski is directing.

"Revolutionary Road's" Justin Haythe is writing the screenplay and Jerry Bruckheimer is producing.

"The Lone Ranger" is scheduled to be released in 2014.
