Earlier this week, Avatar: The Way of Water<\/strong><\/em> director and screenwriter James Cameron<\/strong> set down GQ<\/em> in order to talk about his latest movie. The acclaimed filmmaker ended upgoing through all his films, and revealed some behind-the-scenes information about every project he’s done. One of them was, of course, Titanic<\/strong><\/em>a movie that is a landmark for both his career and cinema itself.<\/p>\n Titanic<\/em> became the highest-grossing movie ever made in 1997, and made superstars out of lead actors Kate Winslet<\/strong> and Leonardo DiCaprio<\/strong>. At the time, they probably didn’t realize how big it would be, but Cameron certainly knew what kind of project he was putting together. That’s why he had the clear notion that the casting of star-crossed lovers Jack (DiCaprio) and Rose (Winslet) had to be perfect. During the interview, he revealed that he was initially hesitant to call Winslet for an audition, a decision which he immediately regretted after watching her read him lines. For DiCaprio, however, the casting process started off on the wrong foot, and the director could easily have gone the other way if Leo hadn’t broken his own rules. Cameron states:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
