Don Johnson took a trip down prank memory lane on Thursday night’s (Nov. 7) Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Host Jimmy Kimmel, who is neighbors with the Miami Vice alum’s daughter Dakota Johnson, told Don that Dakota had informed him that he was neighbors with the late writer Hunter S. Thompson growing up. Don shared that “Hunter was like [his] best friend for 25 years,” and, like his daughter, “would always pull pranks and stuff.”
Kimmel was then reminded of a story he heard from Johnny Depp, prompting his guest to fill in the blanks.
“I called over to Hunter’s to see if he had any weed. Of course he had, I think a ton out back,” Don quipped, per Page Six. “So I said, ‘Listen, I’m gonna come over and get some weed because I got a little group of people here.’ So he said, ‘Sure, yeah, come on over.’”
Don sent his assistant over to secure the goods, who, according to his retelling, “drives up into Hunter’s driveway, and Johnny Depp and Hunter were hiding behind Hunter’s car with shotguns loaded with blanks.”
“My assistant got out of the car, and they both jumped out and said, ‘Die mother!’” Don shared, proceeding to imitate the sound of the shotguns. “And blasted. And my assistant, God bless him, he peed his pants.”
What do you think? Be the first to comment.
Kimmel joked “that’s the least thing [he] would do in [his] pants” before asking if the assistant is “still with” Don, who replied, “Oh, no.”
Kimmel then asked, “Is that assistant still with us?”
Don said, “I think he’s still with us. I’m not sure in what kind of mental condition.”
Depp, who had a close relationship with Thompson, previously portrayed him in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998) and The Rum Diary (2011), the latter of which came out six years after Thompson’s death by suicide in 2005.
