Golden Globe: How many awards has James Cameron won?

When you hear the name James Cameron, your mind immediately goes straight to the movie, Titanic. The talented director has been behind some great hits, but probably none like the 1997 film. He’s received many accolades over the years. Does that include the Golden Globes?

Cameron first found success for writing and directing The Terminator. Then Titanic came along, which he also wrote and directed. 2009 movie Avatar was another massive success for the director. The epic science fiction production is currently the highest-grossing film ever.

The leading man behind the cameras is nominated for a Golden Globe this year. The awards show is scheduled to air live Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2023 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC, as well as on Peacock. With a talented director like Cameron, he’s bound to have won at least one Golden Globe before, right?

Cameron has received a total of two Golden Globe awards over the years. He took one home the very first time for Titanic in the Best Director – Motion Picture category in 1998. Over a decade later in 2010, he received an award in the same category for Avatar.
