We are just a mere 4 weeks away from the release of director Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of the 1925 F. Scott Fitzgerald novel The Great Gatsby starring Leonardo Di Caprio, Carrey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire. Leading up to the new trailer being released tomorrow, Warner Bros. has rolled out some brand spanking new character posters on Facebook, as well as a new official poster for the film. Catch them all and get the details on when and where to find the new trailer after the break.

This second set of character sheets for Luhrmann’s new film are a little more up close and personal and serve as a tease for the unveiling of the new trailer tomorrow morning at 6am PT / 9am ET on the film’s official Facebook page here. Also mentioned is an exclusive first look of the film to appear on Good Morning America. See each of the new character posters below.

Here is the official synopsis for the film:

From the uniquely imaginative mind of writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann comes the new big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, The Great Gatsby.  The filmmaker will create his own distinctive visual interpretation of the classic story, bringing the period to life in a way that has never been seen before, in a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role.

“The Great Gatsby” follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby, and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy, and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan. It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super-rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, and holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles.

Academy Award® nominee DiCaprio (“Blood Diamond,” “Aviator”) plays Jay Gatsby, with Tobey Maguire starring as Nick Carraway; Joel Edgerton and Oscar® nominee Carey Mulligan (“An Education”) as Tom and Daisy Buchanan; Isla Fisher and Jason Clarke as Myrtle and George Wilson; and newcomer Elizabeth Debicki as Jordan Baker. Indian film legend Amitabh Bachchan will play the role of Meyer Wolfsheim.

The Great Gatsby is set to be released on May 10th 2013.
