Interesting. I hadn't seen this little nugget before. From a couple weeks back.

For those not in the know. Kalogridis also wrote Shutter Island. If Cameron really didn't write the script (though I'm pretty sure he wrote the first draft and Kalogridis has done the second draft), it would be the first time Cameron shoots a film that isn't written by himself.

James Cameron: Laeta Kalogridis collaborated with me on a few scenes in the first Avatar, but she never really wrote drafts. I wrote the story, I wrote the first draft, she came in to help me solve a couple of narrative problems that I was having. I was having some problems just getting the story kickstarted and she had some good ideas. She wrote a line or two here or there, but it was pretty much a solo effort. I’m writing the sequels by myself.
But we’re good collaborators. She had written the Battle Angel script and we work really well together. If I go shoot Battle Angel I’ll be shooting the script she wrote.
