It’s been 20 whole years since Rose told Jack that she’d never let go… and then she let go anyway.
Questions of whether Leo DiCaprio could or couldn’t have fit on that piece of wood (he couldn’t) have been dividing nations and destroying relationships ever since.
But there’s one thing that James Cameron wants to set the record straight about… and it’s not that.
The director wants to see how historically accurate his film actually was, and along with the National Geographic channel, he’s going to make a documentary about it.
The film will follow Cameron and a team of experts as they go see some Titanic exhibitions, and try to find out whether the movie that captured the hearts of so many people two decades ago was factually correct.
Audiences will also gain a never-before-seen insight into the making of Titanic, and the director’s personal journey as he told the story of the world’s most famous ship.
In a statement, Cameron said:
“When I wrote the film, and when I set out to direct it, I wanted every detail to be as accurate as I could make it, and every harrowing moment of the ship’s final hours accounted for.
I was creating a living history; I had to get it right out of respect for the many who died and for their legacy. But did I really get it right? Now, with National Geographic and with the latest research, science and technology, I’m going to reassess.”
Titanic: 20th Anniversary will be released in December of this year, and we can’t wait.
