A still from Titanic.
Los Angeles:
Many fans have questioned Jack's death in the final moments of Titanic and now Kate Winslet, who played Rose in the romantic classic, has accepted that the character should have saved her lover's life.
Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate shot to fame after playing one of the most-loved on screen couples - Jack and Rose - in the 1997 blockbuster, set against the backdrop of Titanic tragedy. In the climax, as the ship sinks, Jack and Rose find a piece of wooden door floating. Jack helps Rose climb on it but it starts sinking when he tries to fit himself. He then decides to save Rose's life by staying in the cold water, eventually freezing to death.
The ending has bothered Titanic fans for nearly 20 years with some of them sharing a theory, saying that Jack could have actually shared the door without it sinking.
When TV host Jimmy Kimmel asked Kate about the theory, the actress said, "I agree! I think he could have actually fitted on that bit of door," reported Entertainment Weekly.
On screen couple DiCaprio and Winslet send fans in a tizzy whenever they share a frame.
The actors were recently seen hugging each other at the SAG Awards on Saturday, and their hug spawned a thousand "never let go" jokes.
"People are always so excited to see Leo and myself in the same space, which, you know, at the end of the day, that's so lovely, isn't it?" Kate told the show host.
"It's been 20 years, and people still get such a kick out of it. It's really quite endearing. And we do laugh about it. We were giggling about it last night. I was like, my god, can you actually believe that people just get so overwhelmed by the Jack and Rose thing." (Also Read: Oscars 2016: Kate Winslet Says 'It'll Probably be Leonardo's Year')
The two stars have also worked together in 2008 domestic drama Revolutionary Road.
