‘Titanic’ to return to Netflix days after submersible tragedy, netizens furious

James Cameron’s Oscar-winning film ‘Titanic’ is all set to re-release on streaming giant Netflix on July 1 in the U.S. and Canada.

However, this decision of the OTT platform has irked many social media users as it comes days after the Titan tourist submersible sank, killing all five onboard.

‘Anyone else find it f***ing terrifying that they ALREADY have a documentary of the Titanic sun on Netflix? It hasn’t even been a f***ing week bruh. Wtf. #setup,’ a Twitter user wrote.
‘So Netflix was like “lets capitalize on this sub thing real quick…gone head and put TITANIC back in the rotation,’ another one wrote.

‘Bad timing,’ a Twitter user commented.

The submersible named Titan was diving 13,000 feet to view the shipwreck of the British passenger liner Titanic which had sunk in the North Atlantic Ocean in the year 1912.

Five passengers onboard died in a ‘catastrophic implosion,’ US Coast Guard authorities confirmed, according to CNN report.

The passengers included British businessmen and adventurer Hamish Harding, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood from a Pakistan prominent business family, French diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet and Stockton Rush, the CEO of OceanGate Expeditions, who acted as the pilot for the Titan.
