Johnny DeppAs a follow-up to their previous stint together, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, the duo will team in this second adaptation of Hunter S Thompson's novel, according to a report on Guardian Unlimited.

Unlike Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, which was helmed by Terry Gilliam, The Rum Diary will be directed by Oscar winner Del Toro (for Traffic).
