Baz Luhrmann is one of my favourite directors, so I meet any news about his directorial projects with glee. Combine that with a book adaptation plus F. Scott Fitzgerald and I’m there.
The cast is interesting, with Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby, Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan, Isla Fisher as Myrtle and Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway.
It’s in pre-production with a 2012 release date: will you head to the cinema?
