Trivia: Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire have been
real-life friends since childhood. This marks the first time they have appeared
in a movie together since Don's Plum
(2001).
Baz Luhrmann said in an
interview that the Gatsby mansion was actually his old high school in Australia
along with some computer graphics.
A
picture of Zelda Fitzgerald, wife of author F. Scott Fitzgerald, can
be seen hanging on the wall in the background of the apartment Tom shares with
Myrtle.
Ben Affleck was considered
for the role of Tom Buchanan, but dropped out due to scheduling conflicts.
After Affleck dropped out, Bradley
Cooper and Luke Evans
were considered and Joel Edgerton
was eventually cast.
