The season kicks off from 14 March with The Great Gatsby, starring an ensemble case – including Joel Edgerton, Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire – and led by Academy Award winner Leonardo DiCaprio in this adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s timeless tragedy.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Luhrmann's dazzling and unconventional adaptation of William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet will be returning from 27 March. Starring a young DiCaprio in his first collaboration with the director, he plays opposite Claire Danes as the infamous pair of star-crossed lovers. This modern adaptation is a world away from its Elizabethan origins, taking place in the futuristic urban backdrop of Verona Beach, California.

Considered by many to be one of the greatest musical films of all time, the unforgettable Moulin Rouge! will be heading back to the big screen from 20 March. The jukebox musical stars Ewan McGregor as a crestfallen poet who falls for Sparkling Diamond of the cabaret, played by Nicole Kidman.

Also starring Nicole Kidman, Australia will be screening from 20 April. It follows an estranged wife as she joins forces with a rugged local, played by Hugh Jackman, on a cattle drive across hundreds of miles of harsh terrain to save her ranch. But when the pair finally reach the town of Darwin, they must contend with the same Japanese bombers that just rained death upon Pearl Harbor.

In the biopic Elvis, Luhrmann explores the life and music of Elvis Presley through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker. The film boasts stellar performances from Austin Butler and Tom Hanks and is returning from 14 April.

Rob Lea, Head of Screen Content at Vue, said: “After over three decades in the industry, Baz Luhrmann has proven himself as a true showman of cinema. Here at Vue, we pride ourselves on bringing the ultimate seat, screen and sound experience - what better way to enjoy these high-octane, visually opulent films.”
