Leonardo DiCaprio Almost Passed On ‘Titanic’
Ойын-сауық
It’s been over two decades since the blockbuster “Titanic” was on the big screen, but the film remains one of Leonardo DiCaprio’s most iconic roles. In this week’s “The Vault” podcast, the actor told Access Hollywood in a 1997 interview for “Titanic” why he was hesitant at first to play the role of Jack Dawson opposite Kate Winslet as Rose DeWitt Bukater.

Over all the people who auditioned to play Jack they picked perfectly when they went with Leo. I couldn't see any of those actors that were either offered or sought auditions. I watched a couple auditions and they gave off completely different versions of Jack's character. This movie needed Leo's brightness. I like the way he describes his character in this video. He was just so purely perfect. Its why it hurts so bad at the end. He should have won an Oscar for this movie. This movie is still one of the top best movies ever made. It deserved everything.

he nailed playing jack. him saying about how jack had no demons and it was difficult to play him as normally leo’s roles are filled with emotional backstory, i truly got that sense from his character. to me jack was like that one piece of hope in roses life that appeared for a short duration of time and helped her find happiness, but he was then taken away once she found that happiness. jack was a truly good-hearted person with no bad quality about him and leo played that exceptionally considering about what i just wrote above. it's almost as if he was an angel sent from above lmao

yes! I remember the first time I watched it, and this whole thing was niggling at me. This feeling that Jack wasn't a real person, but almost an hallucination. The movie acts like he's real and gives you no practical or logical indication otherwise, especially in the beggining. But at the end, when he's trapped down in that room and the water floods in, he seems unaffected by the sinking and keeps joking, "the waters freezing!" and later, "you wanna walk a little quicker through that valley of death there", and even though he's practically focused on escaping the sinking ship and getting out of the water, there's this subtle feeling that he's just trying to save Rose. He doesn't behave in the expected manner of a person escaping a trapped ship, he never expresses worry, fear, panick or a desire to live in the way everyone else, and especially Rose, does. He acts like he's an angel on a mission, and once Rose is on the board somehow it's like he knew that this was the place he was trying to get to the whole time, and that he was never going to make it out alive, and all of the saving was just for her, not for him.

For him to say that playing jack was difficult he sure played that roll so natural
There are so many goodlooking actors, but there's something different about Leo, he is a kind of man who makes you want to stare at him at least once again when you see him, well.... staring again and again I think🤔

I need his reaction while watching the entire film
Leo had his whole life fully planned in such a young age. I think that's how successful people do. Now he has become the actor he wanted to be and well established in his career. Simply he is a legend now..
I loved them both..Leo and Kate as ...Jack and Rose. I watched the titanic movie and i cried at the last part as jack drawning while Rose shouting..."come back jack.".

Little did he knew this movie would make him and Kate the planets biggest stars🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
My very first movie star crush. The first thing I ever saw Leo in as a child was actually the movie that he did with. Mark Wahlberg called the basketball diaries where he portrays a teenaged heroin addict Who tries to get his life together. I believe that picture is based on a true story as well. I remember seeing this for the first time in the movie theater with my sister and my mom and dad. And I remember just bawling my eyes out. When he dies in the Titanic. I was so upset by it that my mom actually let me stay home from school that following monday. I just can't believe that he is now in his 50s! And i Haven't really seen him in much of anything lately.
Such an articulate classy beautiful young man!
It seems he is living truthfully that’s why he is confident and at ease.
I’ve always been fascinated with Leo ever since i’ve watched him in titanic movie as a child and now that i’m an adult the way he’s so eloquent in every interviews and the way he views life in general makes me admire him to this day and let’s not forget how brilliant of an actor he is
