James Cameron, a Canadian filmmaker, is a major figure in the post-New Hollywood era, having directed, written, co-produced, and co-edited numerous successful films. Garnering recognition for directing The Terminator and Aliens, Cameron's film Titanic earned him three Academy Awards. His contributions extend beyond directing, as he co-founded the production companies Lightstorm Entertainment, Digital Domain, and Earthship Productions.

Outside of his cinematic accomplishments, Cameron has a strong affinity for deep-sea exploration, embodied in his role as a National Geographic sea tourist. This interest has led him to produce documentaries on the subject, contributing significantly to underwater filming and remote vehicle technologies. He made history by becoming the first person to do a solo descent to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the ocean.

Cameron's films have left an indelible mark on the movie industry, grossing over $8 billion worldwide. Indeed, three of his films are amongst the top four highest-grossing films of all time. His most recent works include Avatar (2009) and Alita: Battle Angel (2019). Time magazine recognized his influence by naming him one of the 100 most influential people in the world.
