The Lone Ranger

Recommended Posts

Howdy, pardners.

 

Not sure if this really warrants a thread but I caught an episode of the old Lone Ranger television show recently. Hadn't seen any since reruns aired on television down on my ranch back in the 1980s. Let's just say it hasn't dated too well but served me well as a bit of a guilty pleasure (and I don't even normally like westerns OR superheroes, so go figure)...

 

Anyway, I decided to see who was still alive out and... it turns out there are probably fewer survivors than from the shoot out at the OK Corral, pardners.

 

The entire main cast (okay, so it was more or less just the Lone Ranger and Tonto) are long gone. Of the notable guest stars, only three remain:

 

Phyllis Coates (born 1927):  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis_Coates

Dwayne Hickman (born 1934):  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwayne_Hickman

Marion Ross (born 1928):  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Ross

 

More info on the cast and guest stars in general:  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lone_Ranger_(TV_series)

 

 

Of the 1956 film version, only Beverley Washburn (born 1948) is still alive:  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beverly_Washburn

 

Of the film's 1958 sequel, two actresses are still alive:

 

Noreen Nash (born 1924):  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noreen_Nash

Lisa Janti (born 1933):  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Janti

 

Of the most recent Disney film, it is unlikely anyone will die soon unless Johnny Depp overdoses or trips over his own ego or something.

There are a few, from the Disney one, who have potential, to pass away, soon.

Lisa Janti (Wiki), actress from the Golden Age of Hollywood reported dead last March at the age of 89 in Van Nuys, LA, CA.

 

A notable figure appeared in supporting roles during the 50s in movies like Tomahawk Trail, Escape to Burma, Naked ParadiseThe Lone Ranger and the Lost City of GoldTen Thousand BedroomsWorld Without End etc.

 

I contacted Glamour Girls and they updated, let's hope for an Hollywood Reporter obit.

.

Lisa Montell — The Movie Database (TMDB)

Cross-posting here to the thread where Lisa Montell, later Lisa Janti was actually mentioned. 

 

Anyhow, Hollywood Reporter obit: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/lisa-montell-dead-world-without-end-1235484771/
