Some new posters for The Great Gatsby feature the main cast
UPDATE: Now includes an ensemble poster and a few more character posters!
A handful of new character posters have surfaced for the upcoming film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby. Baz Luhrmann (Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge!) is behind the reins, and the cast is full of big names taking on timeless characters.
Check out the newest character posters, and get familiar with the trailer, after the jump.
The header poster gave us a glimpse of Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby, and the following few new posters show us Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan, Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway, Isla Fisher as Myrtle Wilson, Elizabeth Debicki as Jordan Baker, and Joel Edgerton as Tom Buchanan.
Here’s an official synopsis for the book-turned-film:
“The Great Gatsby” follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz, bootleg kings, and sky-rocketing stocks. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy (Carey Mulligan), and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton). 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 of 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.
The trailer makes the look like a lot of fun:
The Great Gatsby opens in theaters May 10th.
