James Cameron is not working on a project tied to the OceanGate submersible tragedy.

The director of the Oscar-winning 鈥淭itanic鈥 movie took to Twitter recently to shut down a suggestion that he has plans to work on a project about the Titanic-bound submersible that suffered a 鈥渃atastrophic implosion鈥 last month, killing all five people on board.

鈥淚 don鈥檛 respond to offensive rumours in the media usually, but I need to now,鈥  鈥淚鈥檓 NOT in talks about an OceanGate film, nor will I ever be.鈥

In addition to being a filmmaker, Cameron has made more than 30 dives to the Titanic wreckage and is among the very few people who have descended to the deepest known point in the Earth鈥檚 seabed.

Hamish Harding, Shahzada Dawood, Suleman Dawood, Paul-Henri Nargeolet and Stockton Rush perished as they attempted to reach the historic ship wreckage in a submersible known as the Titan. Their deaths were confirmed when wreckage was found following an international search.

Cameron told CNN at the time that he had suspected an implosion had occurred.

CNN has reached out to reps for Cameron for additional comment.
