Carey meet Daisy

I was one of the few people that loved Baz Luhrmann's Australia and am excited about his adaption of the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic The Great Gatsby. Leonardo DiCaprio has been attached to this project from the beginning and a number of actresses have been mentioned.

It was announced yesterday that Carey Mulligan had won the coveted role of Daisy Buchanan.

This Photo was given to Deadline Hollywood by Luhrmann himself when he spoke to them about the project so far. I look forward to hearing more in the months to come.
