Cannes Sizzle Reel Shows Off ‘The Great Gatsby’ Cast (& The Rain!)

Today is the day! Yes, Baz Luhrmann’s THE GREAT GATSBY officially hits cinemas today and as a special treat we can show you the spectacular sizzle reel from Cannes Film Festival, premiering the cast in all their glory.

Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, Joel Edgerton, Jason Clarke and Isla Fisher, Luhrmann takes us through the swinging 1920s, following the story written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. As Nick (Maguire) arrives in New York he’s introduced to a whole new life, filled with money, sex, debauchery and parties. After bumping into his cousin Daisy (Mulligan), Nick is introduced to the elusive Jay Gatsby (DiCaprio) – their lives will never be the same again.

I recently finished reading the book and was blown away by Fitzgerald’s knack for fine detailing. I’m hoping Luhrmann has done him justice!

Considering Jazmine grew up watching CARRY ON SCREAMING, THE LION KING and JURASSIC PARK on repeat for weeks on end, it made sense for her to study film at London South Bank University. It’s also a good thing that her course requires a lot of sitting down because she’s very accident-prone. When she’s not examining her bruises, she likes pretending that she doesn’t live in Southend-On-Sea and spends hours mindlessly blogging. Favourite films include BLUE VALENTINE, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and TOY STORY 2.
