`TITANIC' GETS A SEQUEL -- SORT OF
NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- Although it's impossible to make a sequel to "Titanic", the Fox Family Channel is doing the next best thing: they're making a movie about Titanic's sister ship, the "Britannic". Like the "Titanic", the "Britannic" was supposedly unsinkable but it sank to the ocean floor in 1916 under mysterious circumstances. In fact, some historians have speculated the ship was the victim of foul play. The TV-movie's plot will revolve around a true incident involving a female British spy who is trying to capture a German intelligence official aboard the "Britannic" but falls in love with him instead. Although Fox is sinking a lot of money into its "Britannic" movie, there is no scheduled air date and there's no Leonardo DiCaprio. In fact, the only star of note is Jacqueline Bisset.
