In 1997 came out on the big screen "Titanic" - a film that has become a cult. People revisited the 3-hour tape in one go, and then in almost every yard one could see how youth companies wore the same T-shirts with the image of their beloved Rose and Jack. On the screen, the characters remain all the same young, and after all, 20 years have passed since the release of the film. How the actors who played in "Titanic" have changed - further in the review.

Leonardo DiCaprio (Jack Dawson)

For quite a long time after the release of "Titanic" Leonardo DiCaprio was associated with the romantic Jack Dawson. But Leo still managed not to remain an actor of one role and embodied on the screen many different images and characters. In 2016, the actor finally received the long-awaited Oscar, to which he had been going for almost 20 years.

Kate Winslet (Rose Dewitt Bukater)

Before "Titanic", Kate Winslet played mainly in theatrical productions in the UK, but after the release of the film, which became a cult, the actress became known all over the world. Even 20 years later, fans are handing out photographs to her for autographs with a still from the film, where she is depicted nude. Over the years, Kate Winslet only gets more beautiful.

Billy Zane (Caledon Hockley)

Billy Zane got the role of the main "villain" in the film. The audience hated him, perhaps more than the iceberg that caused the tragedy. The actor has been actively filming to this day, but the peak of his popularity came in the 1990s.

Katie Bates (Molly Brown)

Katie Bates was already a well-known actress before taking part in the filming of "Titanic". She coped wonderfully with the role of the optimistic and cheerful "unsinkable" Molly Brown. The actress continues to actively appear in films and television shows.

Francis Fisher (Ruth Dewitt Bukater)

Frances Fisher also played the role of a negative character. After all, it was she who insisted that her daughter Rose marry Caledon Hockley for the money. The actress herself admitted that this character was given to her very simply: Francis did her hair, changed her clothes and - voila, Ruth Dewitt Bukater.

Bernard Hill (Edward John Smith)

James Cameron is a talented filmmaker, but many simply can't stand his tough temper. Bernard Hill, who played Captain Edward James Smith, was one of the few people who managed to remain on an excellent relationship with Cameron. After Titanic, another successful global role was the role of King Theoden in the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Danny Nucci (Fabrizio De Rossi)

For Danny Nucci, participation in the film "Titanic" was an excellent impetus for his future career. True, for the most part, the actor starred in television series.

Victor Garber (Thomas Andrews)

Victor Garber got the role of a loser in "Titanic", but in real life the actor can boast an impressive track record and a successful career.

Susie Amis (Lizzie Calvert)

Susie Amis got the role of the granddaughter of the aging Rose. Curiously, three years after the release of the picture on the screens, Susie Amis and James Cameron got married. Today they are raising three children.

Alexandra Owens (Cora Cartmell)

Few will remember the adorable baby Alexandra, who danced together with Leonardo DiCaprio. Even 20 years later, the girl fondly recalls how much she liked Leo when he shared sandwiches with her.

Gloria Stewart (Rose in old age)

Gloria Stewart played the role of an elderly Rose. According to the script, her age was 101 years old, and the actress was 86 years old at the time of filming. She constantly grumbled about the make-up artists who "aged" her even more. Gloria Stewart died at the age of 100 in 2010.

"Titanic" was called the highest-grossing film of the twentieth century. His shooting was so exciting that a separate film could be made about them.
