First Look: Johnny Depp In ‘The Rum Diary’ | First Look: The Rum Diary Starring Johnny Depp, Amber Heard

Johnny Depp is great in everything he does, and I have no doubt he kills it in this film adaptation of Hunter Thompson’s novel, ‘The Rum Diary.’

Now Depp stars in The Rum Diary, due in theaters Oct. 28, 2011. Based on the debut novel by Thompson, the film tells the unhinged story of journalist Paul Kemp (Depp), who grows tired of the New York madness and crushing conventions of late Eisenhower-era America, and travels to Puerto Rico to write for The San Juan Star, a newspaper run by downtrodden editor Lotterman (Richard Jenkins).
