Reports from Variety have confirmed that a film is in development, set to depict the tragic events surrounding the Titan submersible’s implosion and disappearance in June. This cinematic project, produced by E Brian Dobbins of ‘Blackening’ renown and MindRiot Entertainment, signifies the first full-length feature film dedicated to this deeply sorrowful incident. The responsibility of crafting the screenplay has been placed in the capable hands of Justin MacGregor and Jonathan Keasey, both affiliated with MindRiot. It’s noteworthy that before this film, UK’s Channel 5 had aired a documentary titled ‘Titanic Sub: Lost At Sea,’ which delved into the mystery of the submersible’s vanishing act.
Everything about the rumors related to Titan Submersible Film
In June, the Titan submersible met with an unfortunate fate during a deep-sea expedition near the Titanic wreck site in the Atlantic Ocean. The deep-sea submersible, en route to explore the Titanic wreckage, suffered an implosion, leading to the tragic loss of all five crew members on board. Even before the grim discovery of Titan’s debris, speculations swirled about it falling prey to the foreboding ‘curse of the Titanic.’ It took merely four days for the remnants of the submersible to be located, thanks to a remotely operated underwater vehicle.
Initial rumors had hinted at the possibility of the acclaimed ‘Titanic’ director, James Cameron, taking the reins of a cinematic endeavor chronicling this incident. However, those rumors were swiftly quashed by the director himself. The crew of the ill-fated submersible, whose lives were tragically cut short in the accident, included British businessman Hamish Harding, British-Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman, ex-French Navy diver Paul-Henry Nargeolet, and OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush.
The film’s primary objective is to pay a heartfelt tribute to all those who were profoundly affected by this tragedy, including the grieving families of the victims. Additionally, it endeavors to cast a spotlight on contemporary media culture and its far-reaching impact, a mission passionately championed by Mr. Keasey, one of the driving forces behind this project.
