A little wonder, every day

Titanic’s movie budget far exceeded the ship’s original cost in contemporary dollars

AI-generated symbolic comparison between a period ocean liner and film-production equipment; not a historical image of Titanic or a scene from the film.

James Cameron’s Titanic had a production budget of about $200 million in 1997 dollars. The ship itself cost £1.5 million, or about $7.5 million in 1912 dollars. These are nominal amounts from different years. Converting the ship’s cost into modern money depends on the inflation index, so such equivalents are approximate.
