The actor, who has often shied away from commercial movies, said he was happy working on a project of such great "magnitude".
He told the Daily Record: "I do want to say I am very proud to have been part of Titanic but it was a departure for me.
"I'd traditionally done more independent, darker films but I wanted to try something different and be part of something of that magnitude."
DiCaprio added that despite his recent environmental campaigning, there was no chance he would give up making movies and begin a political career.
He commented: "I have no political aspirations whatsoever."
