Summary

James appears on Late Night with David Letterman, as The Abyss disappoints. The Terminator finally finds its fanbase. James rediscovers his passion in a documentary screening, and pitches Titanic. This award-winning 10-part original miniseries stars Ross Marquand (The Walking Dead, Avengers: Endgame) as up-and-coming writer-director James Cameron, and tells the story of how he fought through decades of personal struggles and career setbacks to assemble the most expensive and grueling movie production of all-time, Titanic, that nearly sank two film studios.
