During a press conference in Tokyo today, Johnny Depp told a room full of journalists that he was absent from a Tuesday promo conference for his new movie, Mortdecai, due to chupacabra attack.
“I was attacked yesterday morning by a very rarely seen or experienced animal called ‘chupacabra.’ I fought with it for hours. They’re very persistent, very mean.
