* DawsonCasting: Carey Mulligan (26), who played Daisy in a flashback when the character was 18.
* FakeAmerican: Jordan, Tom, Myrtle, Catherine, Dan Cody, and George are played by Australians. Daisy is played by Creator/CareyMulligan who is British while Wolfshiem is played by UsefulNotes/{{Bollywood}} actor, Creator/AmitabhBachchan.
* RealitySubtext: Leonardo [=DiCaprio=] and Tobey Maguire are actually good friends in real life.
* RetroactiveRecognition: Two of Gatsby's associates - Herzog the butler and Trimalchio the emcee - later reappeared [[Film/MadMaxFuryRoad two years later]] in another Australian film as minions of Immortan Joe (the Bullet Farmer and the Coma-Doof Warrior respectively).
* SeparatedAtBirthCasting: The actors who play young and teen Gatsby actually look and act very convincingly like Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/BenAffleck was offered the role of Tom Buchanan, but had to turn it down due to scheduling conflicts with ''Film/{{Argo}}''.
