Skip to next paragraph'The Great Gatsby' trailerActor Joel Edgerton, who plays Tom Buchanan, husband of Daisy (Carey Mulligan), got more of a showcase in the new series of clips, especially at the beginning of the trailer. The trailer starts with Tom questioning the identity of Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio).
�Mr. Gatsby,� Edgerton says, �I�d like to know, exactly who are you, anyhow? Can�t you see who this guy is?� he asks his wife. �His house, his parties, his fancy clothes.� He then addresses Gatsby. �We were born different from you. It�s in our blood. Nothing that you do or dream up could ever change that.�
Gatsby snaps and yells, �Shut up!�
The new trailer also includes more voiceover from Tobey Maguire, who portrays the book�s narrator, Nick Carraway.
�I had the uneasy feeling that he was guarding secrets,� Maguire says of Gatsby at one point.
Glimpsed briefly in the trailer are a few pivotal moments in the story, including what looks like Myrtle Wilson (Isla Fisher) being hit by a car and what appears to be George Wilson (Jason Clarke) with a gun.
The new trailer features several songs, including �Young & Beautiful� by Lana Del Rey, artists Andre 3000 and Beyonce (whose husband Jay-Z is scoring the film) covering the Amy Winehouse hit �Back to Black,� and a Florence + The Machine song titled �Over The Love� which includes references to �green light� (undoubtedly a reference to the dock light at the end of the Buchanan property which serves as a symbol of Daisy to Gatsby).
�The Great Gatsby� was originally scheduled to come out this past December but is now slated for a May 10 release.
