Leo DiCaprio IS The Great Gatsby!

Leonardo DiCaprio and Baz Luhrmann are two crowd-pleasing forces when separate, but when you combine them you get star-making.  Their 1996 team-up Romeo + Juliet made stars out of DiCaprio and Claire Danes, and since then both have gone on to some pretty big things.  Well, they’re reuniting for a big budget, flashy version of the classic F. Scott Fitzgerald novel The Great Gatsby!  MTV has the scoop on what to watch for in the trailer, and we’ve got the trailer!  Check out 2012’s The Great Gatsby below!

Say what you will about the merits of redoing The Great Gatsby in 3D, but they’ve assembled a great team for it.  I’m not a huge fan of Baz Luhrmann, but there’s no fault on him as a visual director.  The dude knows his spectacle, he moves the camera well, and I think he’ll be able to make Gatsby‘s 3D really work.  The cast is also stellar:  Leonardo DiCaprio in full star mode, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Isla Fisher, and Joel Edgerton?
