Mulligan plays Daisy Buchanan to DiCaprio's Jay Gatsby, and she said that Leonardo is most incredible actor on planet, with a couple of people alongside him. She continued saying that she walked away from audition for that and couldn't believe that she’d been acting with him (during making of film). Mulligan said that she has worked with several amazing people in film, but her friends freaked out when y understood that she’s working with Leo. actor said that she freaks out in a geeky acting way and her friends freaked out in a starstruck way. This was because Leonardo DiCaprio's fame is so big, Mulligan said.

Mulligan ded that despite his star status, DiCaprio was keen to help her out during her audition. During audition of a scene, which required 15 takes, actor said that she didn't really have much dialogue as Gatsby.  camera was never on him, but he played three or characters. He'd say a line as Gatsby, and n he'd jump up and play Tom Buchanan.

y were filming entire scene with cameras over Carey’s shoulder, and he was lighting a cigarette for her. Mulligan said that he was improvising stuff to say, just to help her. And she went, 'Leonardo DiCaprio doesn't need to be helping me in this audition'. She was blown by how generous he was. Leo was auditioning with girls all day, actor said.  And she was so blown away by how generous he was apart from how amazing he was to act with.
