I would make Daisy an E-girl and Gatsby one of her high tier twitch subscribers

    Some dumb start-up actually succeeds and gets him rich.

    Gives him a few excuses to dumb shit like throw parties and drive fast cars around.

    Could make Daisy a yass-queen CEO lol. Or is that too much power for her character?

    Carraway could be some kind of self-help guru that Gatsby hires for himself. Silicon Valley loves that faux-hippy crap, right? Gives an excuse for him to be there (he lives with him because he's like a life coach) and for him to stand in for the audience. He's basically there to evaluate his character and so can easily do that without seeming forced.

    Like he starts out with this just being another gig with a weirdo tech bro before actually starting to like him and understand his personality more than he usually does.
