Depp’s Rum Diary coming closer to big screen
Filed Under: Movies

Johnny Depp is to produce and star in the film adaptation of Hunter S Thompson’s autobiographical novel ‘The Rum Diary’. Thompson wrote the book – which is loosely based on his time in the 1950s working as a journalist in Puerto Rico – in 1959 but it was not published until 1998.

Oscar-winning producer Graham King’s GK Films has acquired the rights to the book, which King will produce with Depp for Warner Independent Pictures.

Depp will also star as Paul Kemp, a journalist writing for a rundown newspaper in San Juan alongside a motley self-destructive crew. Bruce Robinson (‘Withnail & I’) is writing the adapted screenplay and will direct. [source]

Rachael Wilson Says:

I have to be truthful I have never heard of this movie until this website. So thank you. If I met Johnny Depp and I had the chance to tell him anything I would let him know that he is my role model. He is a special person and he doesn’t need to hear this from me because he is already doing this. But to always be himself. I believe that is why every one loves him as a person. I wish in all my biggest wishes that I could meet him. I would be the happiest person on earth if I could meet the most extrodanary JOHNNY DEPP!!!!!!!!!!!

The one that was probably the most challenging was “Johanna.” It’s such an emotional song. And as far as I was concerned, when Stephen Sondheim writes the note and it has to be held for this many beats, you do it. I don’t care if you’re from Miramar or Kentucky or you’re an ass and you don’t sing. It doesn’t matter. Don’t be a pussy, you fuckin’ hold that note. You can’t cheat. You can’t whisper. You can’t do a William Shatner thing. You just gotta belt it out. — Johnny Depp
