Matthew McConaughey failed to land Jack's role in Titanic because of his southern accent
The producer of Titanic has revealed that Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey came close to playing Jack Dawson in the 1997 blockbuster — but one stubborn detail kept him from landing the part. In his upcoming memoir The Bigger Picture, late producer Jon Landau recalled that while Matthew gave a strong audition, it was his refusal to drop his Texas accent that ultimately cost him the role. Matthew McConaughey had auditioned for Jack's role which ultimately went to Leonardo DiCaprio 'We brought him in to do a scene with Kate (Winslet),' Jon wote in an excerpt published by Puck. 'You want to check for chemistry — not just how people look on film, but how they interact.' According to Jon, Kate — who had already been cast as Rose — was impressed. 'Kate was taken with Matthew, his presence and charm,' he added. But director James Cameron wasn't fully convinced. 'Matthew did the scene with the drawl,' Landau wrote. ''That's great,' said Jim (Cameron). 'Now let's try it a different way.' Matthew said, 'No. That was pretty good. Thanks.' Let's just say, that was it for McConaughey,' he wrote further. The actor has spoken over the years about how much he wanted the role — and how confident he felt about his audition. 'I wanted that,' he had told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018. 'I auditioned with Kate Winslet. Had a good audition. Walked away from there pretty confident that I had it. I didn't get it. I never got offered that,' he had added. In 2021, he discussed the experience on Literally! with Rob Lowe: 'I went and read with Kate Winslet, and it was not one of the auditions — they filmed it so it was like into screen test time… it was one of those ones where they, like, followed me… 'That went great.' I mean, kind of, like, hugs. I really thought it was going to happen. It did not.' 'I asked Cameron about this,' he said of rumors that he had turned the part down. 'Not factual. I did not get offered that role.' Matthew joked, 'For a while, I was saying, 'I gotta find that agent. They're in trouble.' I did not ever get the offer.'

‘Virat Kohli is a good singer, dancer & good in mimicry': MS Dhoni calls ex-India captain ultimate entertainment package
Virat Kohli is known to be a complete entertainer on the field. be it his batting or his animated gestures while fielding, its impossible to remove your eyes from the ever-young 36-year-old. Two-time World Cup-winning former Indian captain, MS Dhoni, called Kohli an ultimate entertainment package, not for batting but his skills outside cricket. In a video that went viral on social media, Dhoni was asked to describe Kohli. 'He (Virat Kohli) is a good Singer, dancer, and good in mimicry,' said Dhoni. When the interviewer asked if Kohli can be called as an 'ultimate entertainment package', the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) superstar responded, 'if he is in the mood, he is very very entertaining!' Both Kohli and Dhoni share a great bond both off and on the field, and even after their retirements. It was under Dhoni, that Kohli made his India debut in 2008 and went on to become one of the modern-day greats in world cricket. Currently, Kohli is residing in the United Kingdom with his family. While Kohli has retired from T20Is and Tests, Dhoni announced his international retirement in 2020 but still continues to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for Chennai Super Kings. The 42-year-old gave up his CSK captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad in IPL 2024. However, Dhoni had to rake charge in IPL 2025 midway into the tournament after Gaikwad was ruled out of the tournament with a hand injury. At the same event, Dhoni was also asked about his future with CSK, considering his age. The five-time IPL-winning former skipper said he is not going anywhere from CSK. 'Me and CSK, we are together. You know even for the next 15-20 years. I hope they don't think I'll be playing for another 15-20 years! But yeah,' said Dhoni amid huge cheers from the crowd. 'It's not about one year or two years. I will always be sitting in a yellow jersey. You know whether I'll be playing or not in a while, but yeah, you know yourself,' he added.
