This week we’ve already had characters posters and a trailer for Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby, and now another poster has emerged, showing Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jay Gatsby and Tobey Maguire Nick Carraway enjoying a spin through Jazz era New York.
The Great Gatsby follows 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, bootleg kings, and sky-rocketing stocks. 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 (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 film hits US cinemas on May 10th and the UK on May 17th. Click below for larger versions of the new character posters.
