Kate Winslet has surprise reunion with Titanic co-star – 27 years after film’s release
As a dedicated follower of films and a long-time admirer of Kate Winslet’s work, I must say this story brought back memories like a well-aged bottle of fine wine. The surprise reunion with one of her lesser-known co-stars from Titanic was nothing short of magical.
In a surprising turn of events, Kate Winslet ran into an unanticipated encounter with a less recognized colleague from the 1997 movie Titanic, other than Leonardo DiCaprio.
In a chat on The Graham Norton Show, the long-time star who’s usually in the limelight shared details about her latest film titled Lee, where she not only played the lead but also produced it. During this discussion, she casually mentioned that she had visited Abbey Road Studios in London to attend a recording session for the movie’s score.
During our visit, she was peering through the glass at the stage filled with musicians. There, a massive 120-piece orchestra was performing. She focused on a particular violinist and suddenly thought, “That face looks familiar to me.” This is what she later remembered.
Although she was familiar with the musician, Kate Winslet remained puzzled about his identity and their connection, a response echoed by some of the other musicians as the day progressed, who started gesturing at him, whispering, “That’s him.
In an attempt to recall their past acquaintance, the actress, famously known for portraying Rose DeWit Bukater in Titanic, pondered if the violinist was perhaps a long-lost relative of her family.
Originally from Reading, Berkshire, England, the 49-year-old individual decided to wait for the workday to end before making his way to the orchestra in order to uncover the identity behind this enigma.
‘As she walked in, he said, “It’s me, Kate,” just like the violinist who stood up on the Titanic and called to his friends while playing, that man was Winslet.’
That guy is actor and musician Jonathan Evans-Jones, who played violinist Wallace Hartley in the epic romantic disaster film.
She exclaimed, “That’s him/her!” as the captivated audience, consisting of Dwayne Johnson, Lucy Liu, Jennifer Lopez, Jharrel Jerome, Celeste, and host Graham Norton listened intently to her compelling narrative.
As the live audience roared with approval of the story, Winslet added, ‘It was amazing!’
When the picture of the well-known scene where the band was performing while the ship went down was displayed, the actress verifiably identified herself as Evans-Jones on the television screen.
1) She confirmed, “Here he is on the right, indeed it was him. It was simply marvelous.” Reflecting on the movie, she shared, “We experienced such moments where colleagues I’ve collaborated with before or have long-standing relationships, unexpectedly appeared to support me during my journey in the industry, and it was truly awe-inspiring.
Evans-Jones has been a professional musician and actor, known for his work on movies such as The Incredible Hulk (2008), The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 (2015), The Batman (2022), and Kung Fu Panda 4, where he excelled in the music department, specifically as a violinist.
For many years, Kate Winslet has often reminisced with affection about the period when she filmed the movie. This motion picture was penned, steered, and partially funded by renowned director James Cameron.
In the hit movie, Leonardo DiCaprio portrayed Jack Dawson, Rose’s romantic lead, alongside Billy Zane, Kathy Bates, Frances Fisher, Bernard Hill, Jonathan Hyde, Danny Nucci, David Warner, and Bill Paxton, as well as several other talented actors.
Following its U.S. debut in December 1997, Titanic broke box office records by earning a staggering $2.264 billion globally, securing the title of highest-grossing movie of all time in 1998. This record stood strong for 12 years until James Cameron’s Avatar (released in 2009) surpassed it.
