The Great Gatsby

Honestly who doesn't love a Baz Luhrmann film?  You can not beat the man when it comes to making big, gorgeous, outrageous films.  How thrilling to anticipate his latest project - arguably the Great American Novel, The Great Gatsby, and filmed in Australia no less.

Now down to the important casting news....




Joel Edgerton has just beat out Luke Evans for the role of Tom Buchanan in the epic,  winning the right to replace Ben Affleck, who had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.  How great is that!  What a fantastic opportunity for Joel.  He will be joined by Leonardo DiCaprio playing the enigmatic millionaire Jay Gatsby; Tobey Maguire the narrator and protagonist Nick Carraway; Carey Mulligan, Edgerton's on-screen wife Daisy Buchanan; (we think) Isla Fisher as his mistress, Myrtle; and newcomer and fellow Aussie Elizabeth Debicki as Jordan Baker.

I for one am off to read the book once again - what better reason?
