 r and Loathing in Las Vegas.\nSynopsis:  Visually explosive\, offbeat pop 
 culture comedy\, based on Hunter S. Thompson's cult book that chronicled t
 he writer's drink-and-drug-fueled business trip to Las Vegas. Johnny Depp\
 , Benicio Del Toro\, Tobey Maguire and Cameron Diaz star. From Terry Gilli
 am\, director of The Brothers Grimm\, Brazil and 12 Monkeys.\nFear and Loa
 thing in Las Vegas is a 1998 film adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson's 1971 
 novel Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the
  American Dream. The film\, directed by Terry Gilliam\, stars Johnny Depp 
 as Raoul Duke and Benicio del Toro as Dr. Gonzo.\nPrevious attempts to ada
 pt the book into a film included Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brando as Duke 
 and Gonzo. At one point\, Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi were considered for
  the duo\; John Cusack was also almost cast. Animator/filmmaker Ralph Baks
 hi\, Martin Scorsese\, and Oliver Stone all tried unsuccessfully to direct
  an adaptation. Thompson met Depp and was convinced no one else could play
  him. Filmmaker Alex Cox was eventually hired to direct with Depp and Del 
 Toro committed to starring in the film\, but the filmmaker had 'creative d
 ifferences' with Thompson over the script treatment as documented in the d
 ocumentary Breakfast with Hunter. Gilliam was subsequently hired and made 
 the film with the writer's approval.\nFear and Loathing in Las Vegas was a
  box office failure\, grossing USD $10.6 million at the North American box
  office\, well below its $18.5 million budget. It has since become a cult 
 classic due in large part to its release on DVD\, including a Special Edit
 ion released by The Criterion Collection.\nDirector: Terry Gilliam\nCast:
