Orlando Bloom would be a good choice if not for his british accent. If he could lose it, he would be a suitable actor to play Nick because of his youth, his held back tone of voice and his body size. Another actor taken into consideration would be tobey Maguire. His youth, his innocent blue eyes and the mild manner in which he speaks makes him a good choice to be Nick Carraway. Nick's character is always portrayed as innocent, and he doesn't like to look at things in a negative way, preferring to filter whatever he hears. It is the innocence in both Orlando Bloom and Tobey Maguire which is important in casting them for the role. SO far, both actors have played untarnished characters who are mostly pure in heart. Another actor taken into consideration would be Mark Wahlberg. He has uncharacteristic eyes in comparison with a Jude Law Gatsby and would be a different sort of Nick as he is older. His age would pivot the story in the sense that the focus on Nick's character would be his maturity and his insight into the people around him, instead of his innocence. I think both types of "Nick" would suit well.
