It seems like Leonardo DiCaprio’s fans should thank actor Paul Rudd for talking him into signing Titanic. During an interview on The Graham Norton Show, Rudd talked about shooting Romeo + Juliet, and how DiCaprio told him about receiving an offer for the role of Jack in Titanic. According to the Avengers: Endgame actor, DiCaprio wasn’t very sure if he should take up the role, reported Fox News. “He was saying, ‘Well, I don’t know what I’ll do.’ And I remember saying, ‘You should do it’” Rudd said. “I don’t think I had any say,” he noted. “But it is kind of interesting to think back on that.” The 50-year-old star also has a peculiar connection to the actual British passenger liner, Titanic. The actor’s father was an expert who used to lecture about the doomed luxury vessel in universities.
