The film's director Baz Luhrmann even played Jay-Z's music on set as well.
"On my first day he had Jay-Z pumped up full and we did the entire scene with, you know, Jay-Z in our ear on full blast while acting and it was just so liberating," Isla Fisher, who plays Myrtle Wilson, told MTV News.
Aside from Fisher, The Great Gatsby stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, and Tobey Maguire, reports The Huffington Post. It's set to hit theaters on May 10, 2013.
