Netflix is bringing back James Cameron’s Oscar-winning 1997 film Titanic this week, but the announcement has been met with some backlash on social media due to the timing of the release in relation to the recent Titan submersible tragedy. Netflix also released a trailer for a documentary about freediving, The Deepest Breath, which has also been met with criticism. The licensing deal for Titanic was made before the tragedy occurred, and the documentary is not related to the Titanic or submersibles. James Cameron himself has drawn parallels between the Titanic and the Titan tragedies, and spoke to BBC News about his feelings when the news of the sub’s disappearance first broke.
