The story revolves around a New York journalist Paul Kemp (Depp) who travels down to Puerto Rico to work at the local paper. Depp previously played Thompson in “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” back in 1998. During the filming of that movie, Thompson showed Depp an unpublished manuscript for “The Rum Diary” and obviously convinced the actor to star in the film.
The Rum Diary is set to hit theaters on October 28th, 2011.
