.KaiaGerber will star as Daisy in an upcoming table read of TheGreatGatsby that will benefit amfAR. 'Having the opportunity to play Daisy was such an honor,' says Gerber.
“Having the opportunity to play Daisy was such an honor,” Gerber told me Monday. “‘The Great Gatsby’ has always been one of my favorite books, and I always felt there were so many layers to Daisy in particular. I loved exploring those layers on a deeper level. Being able to do this alongside incredible actors and for an important cause made the experience so much more meaningful to me.”The cast also includes Jake Picking , Mason Gooding , Josephine Langford and Nat Wolff .
“They say directing is 90 percent casting, so being able to do both makes the work that much more gratifying! I wanted to give actors who I am personally excited about roles they can really explore,” said Brando Crawford, Acting for a Cause’s founder and the reading’s director. “Usually ‘Gatsby’ is cast older but in the novel they are in their 20s and 30s, closer in age to this group of actors.
