James Cameron Says Leonardo DiCaprio Almost Lost Titanic Role
in the movie as Rose, he later had a meeting with DiCaprio, who was then 21 years old. Cameron recalled that DiCaprio charmed everyone in the office, including himself, though DiCaprio still needed to go through a chemistry reading with Kate.
"So he comes in a couple days later and I've got the camera set up to record the video. He didn't know he was gonna test. He thought it was another meeting to meet Kate," Cameron toldin a video published Nov. 22. "And I said, 'OK, so we'll just go in the next room and we'll run some lines and I'll video it.' And he said, 'You mean I'm reading?' And I said, 'Yeah.' He said, 'Oh, I don't read.
"And [DiCaprio] said, 'Wait, wait, wait. You mean, if I don't read, I don't get the part, just like that?'" Cameron continued. "And I said, 'Oh yeah, come on. This is like a giant movie.'" As Cameron puts it, the film was going to take up "two years of my life," and he did not want to make "the wrong decision in casting." Afterward, he gave DiCaprio a choice: "You're going to read or you're not going to get the part.""So he comes in, and every ounce of his entire being is just so negative right up until I said, 'Action,' and then he turned into Jack.
