Leonardo DiCaprio flies back to Sydney to reshoot scenes for Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby

The Daily Telegraph reports

THE Great Gatsby's Leo DiCaprio is back in Sydney reshooting scenes in Baz Luhrmann's latest epic and was expected to miss yesterday's SAG Awards where he was nominated for Best Actor in J. Edgar.

Given he was unlikely to win, it was an easy choice.

DiCaprio, who has been lobbying hard in the lead-up to the film awards season, was ignored by the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which determines Oscar nominees.

J. Edgar too failed to garner a nod. But the actor's rep has told the New York Post this had nothing to do with him skipping out on the awards. DiCaprio had long been scheduled to return to Sydney for Gatsby reshoots.

Meanwhile rumours swirl that the 37-year-old actor will make an appearance at tomorrow night's AACTAs at the Sydney Opera House.
