The Daily Telegraph reports
PRETTY young things of Sydney have a deadline of one week to make an impression on Leonardo DiCaprio, with the actor set to depart on December 23.
A rep for Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby confirmed the (scheduled) wrap day yesterday, saying all the stars would be back at their homes for Christmas.
That includes, of course, DiCaprio, whose appetite for pretty models has become the stuff of local legend since he came to the Harbour City in August.
Arriving as the official beau of Gossip Girl actress Blake Lively, DiCaprio parted ways with the leggy blonde before rebounding with some of Sydney's top models - around 40 of whom attended his birthday party last month. And, spies say, a select few also attended an exclusive after-party at The Star.
But it looks like DiCaprio, who has also been linked to American Victoria's Secret model Karlie Kloss and Romanian lingerie model Madalina Ghenea during the Gatsby shoot, has developed an eye for one particular girl.
It is understood Chadwick Models' Kendal Schuler, the one-time girlfriend of Didier Cohen, has evolved into somewhat of a "steady" for DiCaprio, with the pair spotted walking hand-in-hand on a number of occasions.
"He has dated a lot of girls but Kendal is the one he keeps going back to," a friend of the 21-year-old said.
A rep for Chadwick Models said yesterday: "I have spoken to (Schuler) about this and this is a matter that she just wants to say 'no comment' about."
Luhrmann had to hire a large water crane to shower his actors with artificial rain at Waverley Cemetery yesterday.
The cast was filming the funeral scene following the death of lead character Jay Gatsby, played by DiCaprio.
Partner-in-crime Tobey Maguire, who plays the supporting role of Nick Carraway, was a late attendee, rocking up to Waverley late in the day to take over from his stunt double who spent the morning standing in the rain on his behalf.
Yesterday's shoot was the first time the crew have filmed publicly since shooting at Rozelle several months ago.
They have been tucked away behind the walls at Fox Studios.
Warner Bros is due to release the highly anticipated film on Christmas Day next year.
