The first official photos of “The Rum Diary” featuring Johnny Depp as Paul Kemp have made they way out to the public through Film Totaal. This film is based on a Hunter S. Thompson book. It is directed by Bruce Robinson (Jennifer Eight), and also stars Amber Heard (Zombieland), Aaron Eckhart (The Dark Knight), Giovanni Ribisi (Avatar), Richard Jenkins (Burn After Reading), and Michael Rispoli (Kick-Ass).
The Rum Diary follows Paul Kemp (Johnny Depp), a divorced alcoholic and struggling novelist who decides to kick around in San Juan until his ship comes in, working as a journalist for a newspaper that’s on its last legs, drinking gallons of rum and experimenting with LSD. With his new friend Bob Sala by his side, Kemp becomes entangled in a corrupt hotel development scheme with a slick PR consultant named Sanderson.
There is still no official release date for the film.
