Oct 23, 2018 Titanic II: Route, sail date and everything you need to know. Titanic II, a modern replica of the 1912 ship, has recently resumed construction The ship is slated to set sail in the coming years. Travel company Blue Star Line is creating a replica of the Titanic and plans to set sail in 2022, exactly 110 years after the original's ill-fated.
Titanic II plans to set sail in 2022
A replica of the RMS Titanic is scheduled to set sail in 2022. What is being called Titanic II will have the same design as the original ship and replicate her planned maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York.
The Titanic is back – and it’s ready to complete the voyage its predecessor attempted over 100 years ago.
The Titanic II, a replica of the original “ship of dreams,” will be setting sail in 2022, following the same Southampton, England, to New York route the famed Titanic tried in 1912.
“The ship will follow the original journey, carrying passengers from Southampton to New York, but she will also circumnavigate the globe, inspiring and enchanting people while attracting unrivalled attention, intrigue and mystery in every port she visits,” Clive Palmer, chairman of Blue Star Line wrote in a statement.
The new luxury liner was announced in 2012 to honor the ship’s 100-year anniversary, but the inaugural voyage was ultimately postponed due to a reported financial dispute between Blue Star Line’s parent company, Mineralogy, and the Chinese government.

Now Blue Star Line has released a statement, saying the detailed building on the ship has recommenced.
“Blue Star Line will create an authentic Titanic experience, providing passengers with a ship that has the same interiors and cabin layout as the original vessel, while integrating modern safety procedures, navigation methods and 21st century technology to produce the highest level of luxurious comfort,’’ Palmer said.
The RMS Titanic set sail on April 10, 1912 from Southampton carrying over 2,200 passengers. The ship was hailed as the largest ship afloat, and the luxury liner attracted some of the richest people in the world.
The ship hit an iceberg four days into the journey and sank, killing more than 1,500 people.
The horrible tragedy was turned into an Academy Award-winning film in 1997 by James Cameron, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet.
In November 2019, a video supposedly showing a trailer for a 2020 sequel to the movie “Titanic” — called “Titanic 2: The Return of Jack” — started going viral on social media. One version of this video posted on the Facebook page Campus MUSIC, for example, racked up more than 15 million views within a week of its initial posting.
However, a sequel to the movie “Titanic” is not hitting theaters in 2020.
This movie trailer (which can be viewed below) was created by YouTube user VJ4rawr2 and posted on Oct. 18, 2019. That version, as well as several other iterations floating around Facebook, included the word “Parody” in the title. It appears that some viewers may have missed this disclaimer, however, and viewed this trailer as if it showed genuine footage from an upcoming “Titanic” sequel:
Parody movie trailers are rather common online. These videos are typically made by taking existing footage of the actors from unrelated movies and then cutting them together to create a new narrative. YouTube user VJ4rawr2 explained as much in the description below this parody trailer: Hoplite shields.
Yes, this trailer is fake. It’s a parody trailer (sometimes called a fan trailer or concept trailer). It’s been created by editing together existing footage to create a new, original narrative.
These types of videos are often misunderstood. They take existing content, and through the use of editing, voice artists, special effects and music a new stand work is created.
This movie trailer was cut together using existing footage from the Leonardo DiCaprio movie “The Beach,” as well as the movie “Revolutionary Road,” which starred both DiCaprio and Kate Winslet (the two stars of Titanic). But the best illustration of how existing footage can be cut to create a new narrative comes at around the 49-second mark when two characters are shown looking at a large map. While viewers may immediately assume that the woman in this clip is Kate Winslet, it’s actually actress Keira Knightley (standing next to actor Benedict Cumberbatch) in the movie “The Imitation Game.”
VJ4rawr2 has created parody trailers for other popular pieces of entertainment, such as “Speed 3,” a “Friends” reboot, “Monster Inc. 2: The Return of Boo,” and two additional trailers for “Titanic” sequels.
