The trailer opens with a sweeping shot of the ocean, calm and vast under a moonlit sky. The familiar notes of James Horner’s iconic “My Heart Will Go On” begin to play softly. A voiceover by an older Rose (played by Kate Winslet) recalls, “Some love stories never end, even if they seem lost to the depths.”
Cut to a bustling research vessel on the North Atlantic. A team of explorers is seen preparing for a deep-sea dive. “We’ve found something extraordinary,” a researcher exclaims. As they descend, the camera follows them to the ocean floor, where the wreck of the Titanic rests. But something is different. A section of the ship that was thought to be destroyed appears almost untouched.
Suddenly, the camera zooms in on a frozen chamber. Inside, preserved in the icy water, a figure is suspended. It’s Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio). His eyes are closed, but he looks eerily lifelike. Gasps echo as the divers realize who it is. “Could it be…?” one of them murmurs. The screen fades to black.
Cut to a modern-day laboratory. Jack is shown in a state-of-the-art medical pod, surrounded by scientists and doctors. “He’s been in cryogenic stasis,” a doctor explains, “The cold temperatures preserved him perfectly. We might be able to bring him back.” A montage follows: high-tech machines whirr, Jack’s frozen face begins to regain color, and his eyes flutter open.
The screen cuts to black again, and we hear Jack’s voice, disoriented and confused, “Where… am I?” He is shown sitting up in the pod, looking at his hands. “Rose?” he whispers.
Scenes flash rapidly: Jack walking through a modern city, bewildered by the world around him. He sees news reports about the Titanic and images of Rose as an old woman. He discovers she lived a full life without him. Heartbroken, he visits the Titanic museum, staring at her portrait with tears in his eyes.
The trailer climaxes with a dramatic sequence aboard a luxury cruise ship that resembles the Titanic. Jack is on board, looking determined. “Some things are worth a second chance,” he says as he gazes at a woman who looks strikingly like a young Rose.
The trailer ends with the title “Titanic 2: Jack is Alive,” followed by the tagline: “Love Never Lets Go.”
