Titan: The OceanGate Disaster is a 2025 American documentary film directed and produced by Mark Monroe. It chronicles the events surrounding the 2023 implosion of the Titan submersible during a deep-sea expedition to the Titanic wreck site, operated by OceanGate Expeditions.
The film presents a detailed account of the lead-up to the incident, the international search-and-rescue operation, and the broader implications for deep-sea tourism and safety regulations. Drawing on interviews, archival footage, and expert commentary, the documentary investigates both the human stories and the systemic failures involved in the tragedy.
Titan: The OceanGate Disaster had its world premiere at the Tribeca Festival on June 6, 2025, and was released globally by Netflix on June 11, 2025. The film received critical praise for its restrained direction and comprehensive treatment of the disaster, with particular attention to its ethical and technical insights into high-risk underwater exploration.
