“I did Titanic, dude. Falls through ice? No problem. Plane crash? Boat sinks? No biggie.” to Elle magazine on her new movie ‘The Mountain between us’ shot in the icy mountains of Canada.

“There’s nothing that Leo and I have planned. I would love to work with him again one day but who knows? It might not happen until we’re 70.”
