Cameron said in an interview with Postmedia<\/a>: \u201cWe have done a scientific study to put this whole thing to rest and drive a stake through its heart once and for all.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have since done a thorough forensic analysis with a hypothermia expert who reproduced the raft from the movie and we\u2019re going to do a little special on it that comes out in February.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n He continued: \u201cWe took two stunt people who were the same body mass of Kate and Leo and we put sensors all over them and inside them and we put them in ice water and we tested to see whether they could have survived through a variety of methods and the answer was, there was no way they both could have survived. Only one could survive.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Asked whether he wished he had given Jack a happy ending, Cameron said: \u201cNo, he needed to die. It\u2019s like Romeo and Juliet. It\u2019s a movie about love and sacrifice and mortality. The love is measured by the sacrifice.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div> It was announced earlier this year that Titanic would return to cinemas in 2023<\/a>, with a remastered version of the film being released to celebrate the film\u2019s 25th anniversary.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Cameron\u2019s latest film Avatar: The Way of Water has now been released in cinemas worldwide, with the cast already teasing the future sequels<\/a> which are set to release in 2024, 2026 and 2028 respectively when speaking exclusively with RadioTimes.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Titanic is available on Sky Story now.
