“I already really liked Kate as an actress. When we met, she said, ‘Let’s do this movie together, we can do it.’” Ultimately, the movie became into a phenomenon at a level that we could never have imagined,” actor Leonardo DiCaprio shared.
At the time of implementation, the Titanic film project was considered the largest and most expensive film project in cinema history. DiCaprio knew that at that time, there were huge expectations placed on him.
As for Kate Winslet, looking back at her role in Titanic , she felt proud: “It was wonderful to be a part of the movie. The movie is both a part of the memories of many viewers and resonates with the contemporary public.” It’s great in its own way. It’s an honor for us that the public continues to love the movie to this day.”
