To the best of my knowledge this does not occur in the novel or either of the two different films about Captain Nemo- including Captain Nemo and the Underwater City, as the ship who was wrecked was en route to Australia, as I recall his base of operations must have been in Pacific oceania.

Publically, and initially, Amundsen intended to set sail for the North Pole. News reached him that Peary had already 'conquered' the North Pole.

Having been to Antarctica, and while at sea, Amundsen headed south, because no human had yet set foot at the South Pole.
