The highly-anticipated film adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" by director Baz Luhrman will open the 66th annual Cannes Film Festival on 15 May 2013. In Cannes tradition, the cast gathered for a pre-event photo call. From left, Amitabh Bachchan, Tobey Maguire, director Baz Luhrmann, Carey Mulligan, Leonardo Dicaprio, Isla Fisher and Joel Edgerton posed at the Palais Des Festivals as part of the 66th Cannes film festival, in Cannes, southern France, on 15 May 2013.
The highly-anticipated film adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" by director Baz Luhrman will open the 66th annual Cannes Film Festival on 15 May 2013.
In Cannes tradition, the cast gathered for a pre-event photo call in the sunshine of southern France.
After looking glamorous in the early afternoon, the cast will exit stage left, make lightning fast changes and appear in new outfits complimented by new hair and makeup styles for the red carpet before the film showing tonight.
It's a shame that the ladies, especially, will only spend a few hours in their fabulous get-ups. Actress Carey Mulligan, who plays Daisy, went for the natural and fresh makeup look that she has been wearing a lot lately (and which, we suspect, is worn to reflect her character in the Great American Novel, er, Film-- here's why.) She also wore a marvelous strapless black pantsuit. Actress Isla Fisher, too, looked lovely with tumbling red waves and bright red lipstick contrasting with her white sundress.

And the guys cleaned up well, as well, especially director Baz Luhrman and main actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire, who play Gatsby and Tom, respectively.
Other people posing for the film included actors Joel Egerton and Amitabh Bachchan, actress Elizabeth Debicki and Baz's muse, his wife and artistic director Catherine Martin.
If this is afternoon wear, we can't wait to see what they will wear tonight! We are all also wondering if Jay-Z, who did the original score for the movie, and his wife, Beyoncé, who sang a song for it will be on hand. To be seen tonight, when the excitement kicks off!
The Cannes fun won't be over until 26 May 2013. We'll keep you posted on Celebrity Red Carpet!
