 "Titanic" director James Cameron says actor Leonardo DiCaprio moaned constantly about getting wet while filming the 1997 film alongside Kate Winslet.

Cameron, who tolerated the 37-year-old actor's whining on the set, said he flew into a rage when DiCaprio admitted he was actually a qualified diver on the final day of filming, reported Sun online.

"Leo was like a Siamese cat trying to get into the water. He made a huge production of it every time. The water could be 80 degrees but he hated to get wet – or he pretended he hated to get wet.

"It turned out on the last day of shooting, we had to do an underwater scene and he said, 'I'm a certified scuba diver'. What was all this stuff with the cat and getting into the water?

I wanted to wring his neck," Cameron said as he launched the 3D Blu-Ray DVD of "Titanic".

The 1997 released epic romantic disaster film won eleven Oscars including Best Picture and Best Director.
