Johnny Depp to star as antivirus mogul John McAfee

Johnny Depp is set to star as McAfee antivirus software creator John McAfee in a new film titled King of the Jungle.

King of the Jungle is based on a true story published in Wired magazine by Joshua Davis titled John McAfee’s Last Stand which described the antivirus mogul as having cashed-in his fortune to live out his days in the jungle in Belize.

In the film, the Wired magazine writer “accepts what he thinks is a run-of-the-mill assignment to interview McAfee, but once he arrives in Belize, he finds himself pulled into McAfee’s escalating paranoia, slippery reality and murder.”
