Filming 'Gatsby'

Are you a fan of The Great Gatsby? It has to be one of my favorite books. The fact that Baz Luhrmann is currently shooting a remake of the film starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, and Tobey Maguire? It's a dream come true! I love the 'sneak peek' photos above. Leo looks incredible — Carey too! I can't believe we have to wait until 2012 for the film to come out. What do you think — will you see the new version of this classic film?

More Gatsby here and here.

‘Great Gatsby’ casting

Leo will star as Jay Gatsby and Tobey Maguire is rumored to have been cast as Nick Carraway. At the beginning of the week, the only question still remaining about Baz Luhrmann’s Gatsby adaptation was a big one: who will play Daisy? The verdict is finally in — beating out ScarJo, Natalie Portman and many other young and stylish celebs, Carey Mulligan has won the role. Her reaction this week on the red carpet in LA was humble and sweet: she burst into tears. What do you think? Was Carey the right choice?  

On another note, I’m seeing Gatz this weekend at the Public. Can’t wait!
