Blake Lively and Leonardo DiCaprio were spotted having a nice dinner at The Lion in NYC on Wednesday, prompting speculation that the two of them are dating. But don’t get your hopes up just yet!

In truth, the twosome were only talking about starring in a movie together. Leo is said to have been cast as Jay Gatsby in the new adaptation of “The Great Gatsby”, while Blake is being considered for the role of his love interest, Daisy Buchanan.

A spy at the dinner said, “It was an eight person dinner”, adding that director Baz Luhrmann was also there. He’s remaking the classic movie and is seeking out his cast.

Reportedly, his “whole crew was there.” The snitch added that Blake and Leo “didn’t leave together.”

What would you think of them as a couple? His girlfriend might not like it too much, but in Hollywood, stranger things have happened. And what do you think of the casting for the movie? Sound off in the comments below!
