The trailer also features Jay-Z and Kanye West ‘No Church In The Wild’.

Luhrmann filmed ‘The Great Gatsby’ in Sydney with Leonardo DiCapro as Jay Gatsby and Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway. Filming began on September 5, 2011 and was completed in December 22, 2011. Some addition shots were added in January 2102.

The Great Gatsby will be released on Christmas Day, 2012.

‘The Great Gatsby’ is based on the 1925 novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Lurhmann had originally planned to film the movie in New York where it is set but moved the production to the Fox Studios lot in Sydney.
