The Daily Telegraph reports
SHE'S the little-known Aussie beauty plucked from obscurity by Baz Luhrmann to play a lead role in one of the most anticipated movies of 2012, and now Elizabeth Debicki has lifted the lid on what it was like working on The Great Gatsby.
Having graduated from the Victorian College of Arts only a year ago, the softly spoken 21-year-old has spoken about intimate scenes with Tobey Maguire and her blooming friendship with co-star Carey Mulligan.
Debicki says she took to playing golfer Jordan Baker, the love interest of Maguire's Nick Carraway, with the same precision she did any acting - especially when it came to kissing.
"I think it's best not to think about it too much," she told a West Australian newspaper.
"Kissing in films, it's just another thing you have to do. It's kind of becomes as technical as how to open a door really."
Debicki joked that when it came time to lock lips with Maguire, who famously shared an upside-down kiss with Spider-Man co-star Kirsten Dunst, her preparation was simple. "Brushing my teeth," she said.
While not mentioning headline star Leonardo DiCaprio, the striking brunette said the cast would often "do stuff together as a group".
"I probably spend more time with Carey really than anyone else. She's just the most beautiful girl, she's a lovely, lovely person and I feel so lucky that on my first job I got to work with such a lovely cast," she said.
Before Gatsby, Debicki - the new face of Jan Logan jewellery - had only had a small part in upcoming Aussie comedy A Few Best Men.
"Some days I just can't believe this is happening," she said.
