From Baz Luhrmann, director of "Romeo + Juliet" and "Moulin Rouge" comes "The Great Gatsby" In Cinemas Now Official Sites Facebook - http://on.fb.me/Z3wQgz Twitter - http://bit.ly/12khWoX Main site - http://bit.ly/Za1wf9 "The Great Gatsby" follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby, and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy, and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan. It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super-rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, and holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles. Academy Award® nominee DiCaprio ("Blood Diamond," "Aviator") plays Jay Gatsby, with Tobey Maguire starring as Nick Carraway; Joel Edgerton and Oscar® nominee Carey Mulligan ("An Education") as Tom and Daisy Buchanan; Isla Fisher and Jason Clarke as Myrtle and George Wilson; and newcomer Elizabeth Debicki as Jordan Baker. Indian film legend Amitabh Bachchan will play the role of Meyer Wolfsheim. Oscar® nominee Luhrmann ("Moulin Rouge!") directs the film in 3D from a screenplay co-written with frequent collaborator Craig Pearce, based on Fitzgerald's book. Luhrmann produces, along with Catherine Martin, Catherine Knapman, Lucy Fisher and Academy Award® winner Douglas Wick ("Gladiator"). The executive producers are Academy Award® winner Barrie M. Osborne ("Lord of the Rings - Return of the King") and Bruce Berman. Two-time Academy Award®-winning production and costume designer Catherine Martin ("Moulin Rouge!") also designs with the director. The editors are Jason Ballantine, Matt Villa and Jonathan Redmond, and the director of photography is Simon Duggan. The film will be distributed in 3D and 2D by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company, and in select territories by Village Roadshow Pictures. Official Warner Bros. UK Channel - http://bit.ly/ZBe5zX "The Great Gatsby" playlist - http://bit.ly/XZrenk
