Isla Fisher is spotted on the set of The Great Gatsby in Sydney, Australia on Wednesday (October 26). Isla plays Myrtle Wilson in the film, the unstable wife of George Wilson (Jason Clarke) and the mistress of Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton).

Also spotted filming the scene with Isla was Tobey Maguire and Edgerton.

Isla’s husband Sacha Baron Cohen and her two daughter, Olive and Elula, have joined her in Sydney. The family was seen taking a boat trip in Sydney Harbour a few weeks ago to celebrate Sacha’s 40th birthday.

“A Look Back” is a series of posts we here at Caughtonset.com feature weekly. It’s as simple as the title makes it sound. Each Friday we will take “A Look Back” to the set of a newly released film. Look at pictures from the set today, then watch the movie tonight.

This week we take a look back to the making of Bachelorette. Bachelorette stars Kirsten Dunst, Rebel Wilson, Lizzy Caplan, Isla Fisher, James Marsden and Adam Scott. It was written and directed by Leslye Headland who is getting her first chance in the director’s seat. The film will have a limited release with only 47 theaters nationwide.

47 theaters is such a small release. The Words and The Cold Light of Day are being released this weekend in 2800 and 1,500 theaters respectively, and even those numbers are low. I’m pretty sure The Avengers is still out in 5,000 theaters right now and that thing has been out for 2 years. (As of Wednesday, Marvel’s The Avengers is currently playing in 1,705 theaters and it’s in it’s 18th week of release.)
