It’s a subject that I’ve wanted to make a film about, that I’ve struggled with how to do over the years. I met Tsutomu Yamaguchi, a survivor of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, just days before he died. He was in the hospital. He passed us the baton of his personal story, so I had to do it. I can’t turn away from it.

Our take on James Cameron’s first post-Avatar movie
This is a meaningful next step for the director’s career
I’m thrilled to hear that Cameron is committed to directing another movie yet Avatar 5 And I’m intrigued by it’s such a harrowing and important true story. While I’m having fun Avatar, The way of waterAnd I will watch the sequels, I miss that Cameron directs a wide variety of movies. A movie about a survivor of both atomic bombs is a meaningful story for James Cameron To make, especially given the promise he made to Yamaguchi, and will provide a fully Different perspective on this aspect of WWII history than Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer.
