Titanic Is Officially Returning To Theaters Once Again
There are movies, and then there’s ‘Titanic.’ The drama movie is based on the real-life story of the sinking of the famous ship but brings fictional characters Rose and Jack to life to bring the story to the big screen. Of course, that was just the beginning of what would be an incredible adventure for the cast and crew.
‘Titanic’ was the most expensive movie ever made at the time, coming in with a final budget of $200 million. Still, the box office blew that number out of the water, eventually bringing home $2.208 billion. As well as once being the highest-grossing movie of all time, ‘Titanic’ is officially returning to theaters once again.
Titanic is back for its 25-year anniversary
James Cameron is just about everywhere we look. The filmmaker has recently been all over the headlines for his latest release of the sci-fi hit ‘Avatar: The Way of Water,’ aka yet another record-breaking movie from Cameron. If there’s one thing the director knows how to do, it’s set the standard for incredible movies, with ‘Titanic’ perhaps being the biggest of them all. The movie is now getting a remaster and heading back to theaters once more, this time for the film’s 25th anniversary. It’s set to hit the big screen once more over the Valentine’s Day weekend for those who want to dive into the classic once more, with millions of fans eager to get their hands on tickets for the event.


People are confused about Titanic’s new movie poster
Just because people can’t wait to see the remastered version of ‘Titanic’ once more doesn’t mean that things have gone entirely to plan. The iconic movie poster of the two stars, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, locked in arms over the ship has been forever etched into our minds. While no one seems particularly angry that there is a new version of the post for the remaster, many have been left with questions about why there are some notable changes. The most obvious? The fact Kate’s hair appears to be both in her iconic up-do and flowing down her face. Of course, it wasn’t long before the internet ran with the changes, asking if all that extra hair was really why Jack could never fit on the door.
James Cameron has opened up about filming Titanic
One of the many things that are coming with the latest release of ‘Titanic’ is the fact we can see it in 3D for the first time ever on the big screen. It’s also seen James Cameron open up about what it was like to create the epic movie and how it changed his career. Cameron told Deadline that he “can’t imagine” what it would have been like to make ‘Titanic’ without the stars, even though he “had to fight” for Leo to be a part of it all, revealing “the studio didn’t want him.” Thankfully, things all worked out in the end, creating one of the most memorable movies of all time.


The director still stands by his creation
James Cameron has been asked plenty of times if there is anything he would change about ‘Titanic,’ and it seems the director is firmly standing by his decision with everything. The soundtrack alone helped the movie to stand out above all others on the market, with the huge number of awards showing the world just how much so many have fallen in love with ‘Titanic’ ever since. Cameron even told People magazine that he “spent a year researching” the original ship because he “wanted it to be as accurate as possible.” For Cameron, he wanted it to be like taking a step back in time. While he says he could “make a few tweaks to the movie,” such as the rivets they used on their version of the Titanic, Cameron stands by the fact “we got it pretty right.”
‘Titanic’ is officially returning to theaters once again, and millions of fans can’t wait to go back in time to see the incredible movie brought to life once more. The film is docking in theaters on February 10 for a short run to celebrate the amazing legacy it has created over the last 25 years.
