Hot guys of ‘The Great Gatsby’ NY premiere: who would you rather?

I’ll save you a lot of time and energy: Joel Edgerton. Joel Edgerton is the only dude worth banging at last night’s NYC premiere of The Great Gatsby. I just covered the ladies’ fashion (which was a snoozefest), and the men weren’t really bringing it either. To be fair, I don’t think we were ever supposed to think Tobey Maguire was or is “hot”.

Anyway, here are the photos of the dudes from the premiere. I’m really falling for Joel these days – he was sexy in Zero Dark Thirty, he got great reviews in Warrior, and he seemed really happy to score the role of Tom Buchanan in Gatsby. He’s a big, strapping Aussie sweetheart, or at least that’s his vibe. He’s like the next big Aussie hope after the Hemsworth brothers. Think of it this way: Joel Edgerton is the new Sam Worthington.

I’m also including pics of Tobey (who plays Nick Carroway and NO I do not know why his wife was wearing a child’s babydoll dress), Leonardo DiCaprio (Jay Gatsby) and Jay-Z (who produced the soundtrack). Leo looks okay, I guess, but his face seems to be getting wider every time I see him. Yesterday I read this article about Leo and I was stunned to learn that he’s about to turn 40 years old. I didn’t realize that – I guess I thought he was mid-30s. Oh, and I’m including some pics of Baz Luhrmann because – although I wouldn’t swear to it – I think he’s had a facelift. Right?!

    Wow, for the first time, Leo looks his age (which is good) to me!

  2. Mia 4S says:

    Yep, Joel.

    Otherwise, snooze fest across the board.

  3. don't kill me i'm french says:

    Joel ‘s girlfriend looks like Matthew McConaughey ‘s wife

    for once,Dicaprio looks like his age

  4. Eleonor says:

    No thanks.

  5. truthful says:

    the guy in the grey suit looks good, even though he’s short, the lady he is with makes him even hotter.

    He has a certain look like he’d work itin the sack.

    I loathe that beard thing on Leo, he’s lost his appeal with me but I do like his performances.

    the last ladies shoes look very painful.

  6. Agnes says:

    Hot guys? What hot guys?

    • V4Real says:

      I know I’m still searching for the hotnes. Leo hasn’t done it for me since; well let’s just be honest; he’s never done it for me.

      Jay Z hot? Now that’s freaking laughable.

      • marie says:

        I thought Leo was hot when he was younger, not so much lately though

      • Me Three says:

        Never gotten the buzz for Leo either. Don’t think he’s good looking and that big head applies both physically and emotionally as well. He reminds me of a bratty little boy used to getting his own way!

    • Anna says:

      @Agnes

      What you said.

    • moon says:

      +1

    • Agnes says:

      @Agnes – you’re “Agnes” too, hmm? One of us should change our name. 🙂

      • Agnes says:

        Oh, there are two of us here 🙂 Well, Agnes is not really my name. It’s more like english version of it. I can think of something new 🙂

  7. Oops says:

    Not interested at all

  8. Leo looks great! Joel too 🙂 But where is the sexy Jason Clarke?! He’s in the movie so I guess he’d be at the premiere..?

    • GoodCapon says:

      No Jason Clarke! I am disappoint. He could have single-handedly rescued this no-hot-guys thread.

  9. Chrissy says:

    Look at that face. Leo is becoming Jack Nicholson the second coming without the Oscars!

  10. lucy2 says:

    I vote none of the above.

  11. Harpreet says:

    Kaiser, any pics of Amitabh Bachchan? He has a cameo it the film and was also at the premiere.

  12. tracking says:

    Definitely Joel. But not really a choice since Leo is, by all accounts, disgusting, and Tobey is his friend, so is gross at least by association.

  13. lisa says:

    why is tobey’s wife dressed like baby snooks?

  14. T.Fanty says:

    Oh, that was the guy from Zero Dark Thirty? Then him for sure.

    • j.eyre says:

      I’m on my first cup of coffee but do you read who the silver haired gentleman is? The one with the fun looking wife/girlfriend with the unfortunate shoe situation? I have read twice now but maybe I haven’t woken up.

      As for Joel – my Aussie love expands! It might be easier to list Australian men I don’t find hot.

      I love Jay Z’s suit. And I would always hit Leo – even though I know that makes you cringe.

      • mercy says:

        That’s Baz Luhrman.

        He is looking different, but I’m not sure about a facelift. Maybe too much botox.

        Joel looks good. I see a ring. Did he get married? I missed that.

        Leo is not aging as well as I thought he would.

      • AngelaH says:

        That’s Baz Luhrmann.

      • j.eyre says:

        Oh my gosh – that’s Baz? Has he lost weight? I think he looks good.

      • ctkat1 says:

        Baz Luhrmann’s wife is Catherine Martin. She’s a production/costume designer. She does all of his films, and won two Oscars for Moulin Rouge!.

        Costume designers always wear something slightly crazy on the red carpet- she looks like she’s fun.

      • AngelaH says:

        Baz has clearly been practicing his Bogo Pogo! That’s it, I’m watching Strictly Ballroom after work.

      • j.eyre says:

        @ctkat1 – She looks like she would be a blast and a hint like Ashley Jensen. On my phone, the hanging beads looked connected to the shoes. They don’t look quite as complicated now.

        Question – are you the former chatkat? I saw your name the other day and wondered if you had a weird shut out situation like Dooliloo/Ms. Kay and LucyOriginal/Miss M and had to change your moniker. If not, my apologies.

      • ctkat1 says:

        @j.eyre- Nope, not chatkat!

    • andrea says:

      Yep, definitely Joel, even if he is looking a bit puffy here.

      Leo’s face has pretty much swung to the character actor side of the fence. But when I think about it, he lost his boyish leading man looks long ago.

  15. marie says:

    while they all look nice, I’m gonna go with none of them..

  16. Jaxx says:

    I think Leo is just gross. And with that beard he looks like a cartoon villain.

  17. dina says:

    Toby’s wife………………… ew.

  18. HolaGatito says:

    Jay-z is not an attractive man but he looks nice in his suit. Leo looks very strange.

  19. Tessa says:

    Do ya’ll remember how beautiful Leo used to be? Remember? Remember? Oh, sads, it’s just gone! Like no one else, he’s just lost it! Poof!

    • Jaxx says:

      Like no one else? Nope? Remember Prince William from about 16 to 18? Then poof! So far gone you have to look at pictures to prove to yourself it ever existed. So sad.

  20. Dawn says:

    Jay Z in his Mad Men’s suit looks good. I still like Leo and think if he shaved he would still look great. I am not sure about anyone else. Leo needs to settle down now and have some kids. I don’t think Jack Nicholson became Jack until he was in his 40’s, I think he partied away his 20’s and 30’s but even he had some kids. It’s time Leo, find a girl and have some kids.

  21. Ms.Smurf says:

    I think Leo and Joel both look better with scruff, but neither of them are pretty, so that’s all right. I think they’re more charismatic, than traditionally handsome, which is sometimes better.

    I do think Leo is the more attractive one of the two, but that’s because Joel doesn’t do it for me at all. Leo didn’t, until recently. Django Unchained did it for me. Obviously not because of his character there….they jacked and blackened his teeth up…but
    I had never thought of him as a really good actor until that point.

    I mean I knew he was an amazing actor, but I didn’t fully realize that until I saw him as Calvin Candie…he should’ve been nominated for that.

    Anyway, Leo wasn’t that hot to me, despite Titanic (to be perfectly honest, I watch that movie for Kate’s naked scene), but always knew he was going to be in a good film. The worst thing I ever saw him in was The Man in the Iron Mask…why they hire americans for play french people I don’t know- same thing with Ever After (though that film was amazing and it made up for it.)

  22. gloaming says:

    I really like Joel Edgerton as an actor, but as a ‘hot guy’ I think there’s something missing.

    Oh, I know what it is, a neck.

  23. Shelly says:

    I know Leo’s a cad, but I will always pick Leo. I’m still attracted to him, no matter what he looks like. Yeah, I know…

    • Nessa says:

      Yeah, I totally feel the same way.

    • Ms.Smurf says:

      Don’t feel bad…he has just enough “goodness” and self depreciation to trip us up. I mean, the only thing that is considered “wrong” with him (by some) is that he dates twenty year old blonde models. Other than that he is gold.

      Don’t hear stories about him being a bitch to fans or press, he’s thankful that he has a steady, working job, doesn’t put his personal life too out there for the press……which is probably why he doesn’t get called out for saying he wanted to get married and have kids one day.

      I think he’ll get married and have kids (or just have kids) eventually, especially as his 40th is coming up in a few years. I just watched an interview for the Great Gatsby, and the interviewer asked him if he was thinking about marriage and kids, and he said he didn’t try to think/dictate the future….whatever happens happens. Maybe that’s his “I want to party/bone hot models for a while longer”…who knows. If he ever has a girl, I’d want her to look like his mom. She was probably one of the most interesting looking women I’ve seen that just had the “generic” blonde hair, blue eyes deal.

      Cia..lunch hour over.

      • bridget says:

        Did you ever read the classic profile of him? Lainey links to it occasionally. Leo and his Pussy Posse are a bunch of douches. Im sure he’s a very professional douche, though. And he’s never getting married, nor having kids. He lives the perpetual bachelor lifestyle – hanging out with the dudes, dating 20 something lingerie models who are at his beck and call, partying it up. At 40, that’s a lifestyle, not a phase.

  24. MJ says:

    I guess I’m the only one who thinks Tobey looks cute. He hasn’t aged much, especially when compared to Leo.

  25. Stubbylove says:

    Leonardo always looks like a 19 yr old wearing his dad’s suit.

  26. Apsutter says:

    I like Leo’s blue suit but other than that he looks like a sweaty, smarmy doucher like usual.

  27. whatsup says:

    Leo is still my Jack Dawson, no matter how old he gets.

  28. EscapedConvent says:

    That’s Baz Luhrman? Didn’t recognize him. Also I can’t figure out the bottom half of his wife’s outfit.

  29. Annelise says:

    I love Jay-Z’s retro suit. He looks dapper and perfect for the occasion.

    Jason Clarke looks delicious as always.

  30. Quinn says:

    I thought JayZ was Anthony from Designing Women! (No offense to Anthony)

  31. Emily says:

    Tobey Maguire’s the only one I find attractive. And if he wanted to cheat on his wife, I would no longer find him attractive. So. None.

    DiCaprio oozes slime. It’s a good thing he can act as well as he can, because otherwise he would be the worst possible choice for Gatsby in existence.

  32. mia says:

    I want to give Joel Edgerton a flat iron.

  33. mythrasun says:

    Where is Jason Clarke and his sexy serial killer vibe??

  34. Shy says:

    Leo begins to look his age. And it’s weird. He looks weird. Kind of old. And lost his appeal.

  35. Margaux says:

    He’s far better than Sam Worthington. I remember when he was on the Secret Life of Us – fuck that was a good show! He’s been around a long time – these last few more high profile roles are well deserved!

  36. Ally8 says:

    None of the above.

    It’s like a Cabbage Patch Kid convention up in there.

    Gimme 70s Robert Redford any day.

  37. Amy says:

    I’ve always liked Tobey Maguire, dunno why. He has very expressive eyes. Not so much in that one picture but I’ve always noticed them. Just seems like a nice guy all around.

  38. kitty bye says:

    None! Zero!
