We already know what James Cameron's next film will be after he finishes the Avatar franchise
Cameron has been confirmed to be heading up at least three more schools Avatarincluding the next one Avatar: Fire and Ash. But at the same time, The director is preparing his next project for when he is finally done with the saga. Avatar: The last train from Hiroshima. This would be Cameron's first non-Avatar film since he made Titanic in 1995.
The truth is that Cameron has characterized his film directing career with his science fiction epics. full of action, like Aliens, Terminatorand of course, the movies of Avatar. But, after finishing the Avatar franchise, we will see a more Avatar-style movie. Titanic: a historical drama based on a real-life tragedy.
The director has confessed that this is a subject he has wanted to make a film about for years, and that he has “been struggling to find a way to do it.”
What is The Last Train from Hiroshima about?
Based on the 2015 book of the same name by Charles Pellegrino, it will tell the most incredible eyewitness account of the 1945 atomic bombings of Japan. The film tells the true story of Tsutomu Yamaguchi, who He survived the Hiroshima bomb, boarded a train to Nagasaki, and then survived the next bomb as well. nuclear from there.
Yamaguchi is the only person officially recognized by the Japanese government as a survivor of both explosionsAnd director James Cameron managed to meet Yamaguchi in the hospital a few days before he died and “handed him the baton of his personal story” to turn it into a film.
So, The last train from Hiroshima It seems to be the perfect film to accompany the great success about the creator of the atomic bomb. Oppenheimer (2023) Christopher Nolan's film, which focused on the perspective of the physicists working on the Manhattan Project. Now, The Last Train to Hiroshima will show something similar but from the Japanese perspective.
Why is this new movie so exciting?
The real story behind The last train from Hiroshima in itself makes the plot particularly excitingbut the fact that Cameron is working on a new film outside the franchise Avatar is, without a doubt, the icing on the cake. After 15 years of Avatar sequels, it seemed unlikely that Cameron would walk away from Pandora, but the opportunity to see this legend make a new film separate from the franchise makes the interest even stronger.
Of course, this does not imply that the first two films Avatarboth the original and The Way of Water They are not masterpieces. And that is because Avatar It is an unrivaled franchiseespecially for lovers of science fiction and alien worlds. But we must also add the idea that they have managed to convey moving messages about the environment.
However, After so many “recurring” visits, the excitement is likely to fade a bit.so the idea that Cameron dares to do something completely new and far from what we have seen during the last two decades, fills his fans with excitement. But, once again, it is necessary to highlight that Avatar is great, but, after five or even seven movies that are expected for the franchise, This whole story might become a little unnecessary And maybe at some point what happens is what prevents Quentin Tarantino from seeing Toy Story 4and one of the Avatar movies has a great ending that makes it not “necessary” to see the next one.
But, whatever, The last train from Hiroshima It seems to be a promising projectespecially for Cameron's future career, although, we should not expect it to happen in the near future, Well, the director will not start making the film until he has a break in the incessant production schedule of Avatar, because these are productions that take a long time to make, so keep in mind that Avatar 5 is not scheduled to be released until December 19, 2031and that's without taking into account possible delays between now and then.
