" He knows I will be up for anything . "
Admit it: When you think about theTitanic, you think aboutTitanic. How could you not?
Two people who will forever be associated with the classic 1997 film: DirectorJames Cameron— who’s also done other incredible blockbusters likeTerminator 2: Judgment Day,True Lies, andAvatar— and actorKate Winslet, who became a household name practically overnight because ofTitanic.
OK, so: Back in 1998, Kate gave an interview toRolling Stonein which she said, “I would only work for Jim Cameron again for a lot of money.” The profile also claimed that Kate had said “harrowing near-drownings, and lots and lots of yelling” took place on set.
As time went on, Kate’s remarks were taken to be indicative of a feud between her and James as a result of working on the film together. But now,both of themare clearing the air.
“There was never a rift between us,” James toldVarietyin a profile of Kate. “She had a little postpartum depression when she let go of Rose. She and I have talked about the fact that she goes really, really deep, and her characters leave a lasting, sometimes dramatic impression on her.”
“There’s a part of me that feels almost sad that stupid, speculativeTitanicstuff at the time overshadowed the actual relationship I have with him,” Kate added when talking about her standing with James.
“He knows I will be up for anything. Any challenge, any piece of direction you give me? I’ll try it.”
Now, it shouldn’t be any surprise that all is well between the two. Kate, after all, appeared in James’s latest,Avatar: the Way of Waterfrom 2022. (Yes, that’s her below, as Ronal.)
And in the profile, James also confirms that Kate’s returning forAvatar 3, which is scheduled for release next year. “I’m in the cutting room now, and I work with her performance every day," he said.
