Natalie Portman was originally cast as Juliet in Romeo and Juliet when she was 13 years old. However, the age difference between her and leading man Leonardo DiCaprio proved problematic.
Leo was 21 at the time, and producers decided to re-cast her because they said "it looked as though DiCaprio was molesting her" in the romantic scenes.
That wasn't the only dramatic occurrence on the set of Romeo and Juliet. One of the movie's hair and makeup artists was kidnapped by gang members and held for ransom. He was returned by being thrown out of a moving car which caused him to break a leg.

In 1940, Gone With The Wind actor Hattie McDaniel became the first ever African American actor to win an Academy Award.

James Cameron spent more time with the Titanic on diving excursions than the original passengers did on the ship.
In total, he made 12 dives to the wreck, many of which lasted 15-17 hours.
20th Century Fox
Cameron's commitment to authenticity throughout the movie helped solve a mystery about the shipwreck.
When the wreck was found, the grand staircase was missing and no one could figure out why. Cameron had the movie set built as an exact replica, and while filming the sinking sequence the stairs lifted from their foundation and began to float. It was therefore concluded that when the real Titanic sank, the staircase had similarly floated up and out of the ship.
20th Century Fox
The man at the end of Titanic drinking from a flask was based on a real passenger who survived in the Atlantic as a direct result of his blood alcohol level.

And, finally, during a celebratory meal mid-way through filming Titanic, the entire cast and crew were poisoned with PCP-spiked clam chowder. To this day no one knows who was responsible.
