Make sure you've got fuel in the tank.
I think sudden DI failure is probably less likely than a fuel pump failure.
Pull a vacuum hose off of the intake manifold, and spray in some carb cleaner, put the hose back on, and try starting the car again. If it sputters and tries to run, the fuel pump wiring, Crank Pos Sensor and DI are probably ok, and you're most likely looking at a fuel delivery issue.
If the carb cleaner got some response from the engine, you might try semi-gently smacking the bottom of the gas tank with a rubber mallet or a junk of wood. You might just knock the pump to the next spot, and it might run. If it does, change the pump soon.
The real run down is in Ari's checklist, though.
