STORY: Baz Lurhmann Sneaks Into a Test Screening of 'The Great Gatsby'

There, he lands next door to Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy (Carey Mulligan), and her philandering husband, Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton).

According to the official logline, Nick then gets "drawn into the captivating world of the super rich, their illusions, loves and deceits."
