Bruce Robinson writes and directs this drama based on the debut novel of Hunter S. Thompson. Johnny Depp, who also co-produces the film, stars as burned-out vagrant freelance journalist Paul Kemp, who leaves his life in New York behind and heads off south to work for a local newspaper in San Juan, Puerto Rico. There he adopts the debauched, liquor-soaked lifestyle of Hemingway's 'Lost Generation' and develops an unhealthy obsession with Chenault (Amber Heard), the beautiful fiancee of shady property developer Sanderson (Aaron Eckhart).

Johnny Depp and Ewan McGregor star in this action comedy directed by David Koepp. Suave English art dealer Charlie Mortdecai (Depp) is notorious amongst his people for being able to charm his way into or out of any situation. When Police Inspector Martland (McGregor) receives a tip-off about a stolen painting containing the code to a bank account filled with Nazi gold, he employs Mortdecai as a consultant to use his knowledge and contacts to recover the stolen artefact. With his wife Johanna (Gwyneth Paltrow) and loyal thug Jock Strapp (Paul Bettany) by his side, Mortdecai sets off on a mission to retrieve the painting and, ultimately, the gold.
