    [PAUL KEMP] -Johnny Depp

    SEEKING: [CHENAULT] A beautiful, 25 year old, translucent vision from Connecticut, with a killer smile and a wry, enigmatic personality, she wears barely-there sarongs, sunbathes nude, and oozes sexuality in everything she does. She enchants and mesmerizes Kemp from the moment they meet: while both escaping a tedious, high-end party. Chenault is dating and possibly engaged to Sanderson, but clearly feels an attraction to Kemp. She’s a daredevil who loves to dance and drive fast. She gets into big trouble with a lust-crazed, violent crowd during Carnival in St. Thomas. .. LEAD. This role contains nudity.

    STORY LINE: 1960: Divorced alcoholic and struggling novelist PAUL KEMP decides to kick around San Juan until his ship comes in, working as a journalist for a daily newspaper that’s on its last legs, drinking gallons of rum and experimenting with LSD. With his new friend BOB SALA by his side, he becomes entangled in a corrupt hotel development scheme with a slick PR consultant named SANDERSON, and falls in love with Sanderson’s unattainable girlfriend, CHENAULT. . .

    What do you guys think?

    Any suggestions for the role of Chenault???

    Pighead can't sunbathe naked because Pigheads curly tail would turn into crispy bacon :pac:

    Kate Hudson? Jessica Biel?

    Why did they have to change the story around so much? They got rid of the biggest nutcase in Yeamon.

    Just as long as they kept Moberg...

    Who knows? Maybe Yeamon is already cast - after all Benicio Del Toro and Nick Nolte were previously connected to the film and no mention of them here. All will be revealed soon I guess!

    I imagine Nolte would have been picked for the part of Moberg. He seems like he would fit the mould. I would've pegged Del Toro for Sala.

    I have it on good word that they are actively seeking an unknown for the role, so Megan Fox fans can forget about seeing her cavort on a beach with her jugs out. Shame:(:pac:
