Overview
- In a Variety/CNN Actors on Actors conversation published Dec. 17, Jennifer Lawrence asked if he had rewatched Titanic, and DiCaprio replied, “No. I haven’t seen it before.”
- DiCaprio added, “I don’t really watch my films,” as Lawrence encouraged him to give the 1997 blockbuster a look, calling it “so good.”
- The exchange aligns with DiCaprio’s earlier comments to Paul Thomas Anderson in Esquire that he rarely revisits his work, noting The Aviator as a rare exception.
- DiCaprio also recalled passing on Boogie Nights because its production overlapped with Titanic, saying, “Maybe it could have worked out.”
- The admission drew swift media pickup and fan disbelief, with coverage underscoring Titanic’s long-standing cultural weight and more than $2.2 billion in global grosses.
