How are the actors and actresses of “Titanic” 24 years after its premiere

It’s been 24 years since Titanic was released, and despite all these years, the movie continues to thrill audiences and is present in the list of the best romantic movies of all time. The generation that watched its premiere while still in their teens has grown up, but to this day many people enjoy revisiting this iconic work. Even celebrities like Saoirse Ronan, Emma Stone and Taylor Swift declare their love for the film.

In today’s article we, from awesome.clubwe look back at the film’s main and memorable characters and, together with our readers, find out what blockbuster actors and actresses are doing these days.

In 1997, the role of Rose earned the actress her first Oscar nomination. In 2009, Winslet won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in the drama The Reader, in which she brilliantly portrayed a controversial love story.

Winslet is not shy about acting without makeup or with dirty hair. When playing the role of Mare Sheehan in the miniseries Mare of Easttown, the actress insisted that her character be as natural as possible. Nowadays viewers are eager to enjoy the second part of the renowned Avatar, which will be released in 2022 and in which Winslet played the role of a scuba diver.

The actor of Greek descent rose to fame in 1989 by playing the role of the charming Hughie in the thriller film Terror on Board. The actor often plays the antagonists, and it was to be expected that the role of Hockley would be nominated for best villain at the MTV Movie Awards. Since then, Billy Zane has not appeared in notable films, mainly participating in series and action movies.

Currently, the actor is involved with the film Waltzing with Brando, in which he plays Marlon Brando himself.

After her success on Titanic, the actress is often called upon to interpret the vivid images of mothers, and she is successful in doing so. Just remember 2004’s Laws of Attraction and 2020’s Love With a Date, which show that imposing talent of Fisher.

The actress is still acting: in 2021, the 4th season of the series The Sinner, starring her, will be released on Netflix, in addition to the film debut of the drama Grace and Grit, in which the actress plays the mother of the protagonist, who suffers from cancer.

After playing Captain Smith, Bernard Hill played the alchemist Philos in The Scorpion King and the director of the hospital Phil Parsons in the feature In the Company of Fear. The actor’s most memorable role is the charismatic Théoden, King of Rohan, in the sequels to The Lord of the Rings franchise: The Two Towers and The Return of the King. Bernard Hill is the only actor to appear in two films that won 11 Oscars.

The most recent work of the actor, who is over 75 years old, was in the tragicomedy Golden Years, in which he played a retired bank robber.

Victor Garber frequently chooses roles in successful romantic comedies, such as The Wives Club — with Goldie Hawn and Bette Midler — and Legally Blonde, with Reese Witherspoon in the lead role.

Garber is a close friend of actress Jennifer Garner, and even performed the ceremony for her marriage to Ben Affleck, in addition to being godfather to Violet Affleck, the result of the union of the actors. He continues to act in comedies, and in 2020 he played the role of a strict father in the film Anybody Warns?

After the movie Titanic, Jonathan Hyde chose to play supporting roles. The best known films with his participation are The Mummy and Richie Rich. Despite the short appearance time of the characters — the Egyptologist and the butler — the actor managed to make them vivid and memorable. It is curious that in the blockbuster Jumanji he played two roles: the father and the hunter. Jonathan Hyde is currently performing in productions at the Theater Royal in Windsor.

The actor’s real name is Hans Jörg Gudegast. At the age of 18 he moved with his family from Germany to the United States and since 1980 he has been an irreplaceable actor in the popular American series The Young and the Restless, which first aired in 1973.

In addition to his film career, Eric Braeden has always played sports and in his youth he even won the German Athletics Championships.

Ioan Gruffudd studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and has never been short of roles. In 2008, the actor played the superhero Mr. Fantastic in the Fantastic Four and Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer films. Already in the series Forever: An Eternal Life and Harrow, Ioan took on the role of a medical expert and, of course, fit the character perfectly. The Harrow series proved to be a success and was renewed for a 3rd season.

Kathy Bates was recognized as one of today’s brightest and most talented actresses long before Titanic’s debut. The role of a crazy fan of a famous writer in the feature Crazy Obsession, released in 1991, won her the Oscar for Best Actress. But her career success was overshadowed by health problems. Kathy is a valiant survivor of ovarian and breast cancer and has also overcome complications from the surgery — lymphedema. Four years after undergoing treatment and several surgeries, the actress continues to help with cancer research and considers herself “lucky”.

The actor’s first success came in 1993 with the release of the drama Gilbert Grape: The Dreamer’s Apprentice, in which he starred opposite Johnny Depp. DiCaprio was nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe for Best Actor for this role for the first time. Since then, the actor has remained on the big screen and in 2016, after five nominations, he won the long-awaited golden statuette for his performance in the feature The Revenant.

Since 2014 DiCaprio has been actively involved in environmental projects and even produces documentaries about climate change, shared on his Instagram. The actor took a break in these activities just for the filming of Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood, directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Like his character in the film, the actor himself is an Italian immigrant, and since the age of 14 he has made guest appearances in soap operas. After the debut of Titanic, Nucci continued to play supporting roles but was not very successful. Of his most famous films, only the action-adventure film A Rocha comes to mind, under the direction of Michael Bay. Currently, the actor plays one of the characters in the series 911, the most watched on Fox.

Suzy Amis started her career as a model, but in the 1980s she moved on to film. Among Amis’s works, the western A Ballad for Jo, released in 1993, in which the actress played a young woman who disguises herself as a man and struggles to survive in the wild west stands out. The film and Amis’ performance did not go unnoticed and received positive reviews. During the shooting of Titanic, she and the film’s director, James Cameron, began dating.

In 1999 they got married and are still together today, and they have three children. Today the family lives on an organic food farm, raising chickens and cattle. According to Suzy, this lifestyle helps bring the family together.
