The Navajo Nation hopes the upcoming release of The Lone Ranger boosts interest from Hollywood. Parts of the The Lone Ranger were filmed on the reservation. Shiprock in New Mexico, Monument Valley in Arizona and Canyon De Chelly in Arizona can be seen in the trailer for the film, which is scheduled for release on July 3. Scenes in The Host, a recently released film from the author of the highly-successful Twilight franchise, were also shot on the reservation. Get the Story:
