The publication has been cancelled for a controversial book about the bombing of Japan that Avatar director, James Cameron, had chosen to be the possible story line of a new movie. The oublisher, called Henry Holt and Company, said that the author, Charles Pellegrino, “was not able to answer” questions about The Last Train from Hiroshima, including whether two men written about in the book actually existed.

Pellegrino had previously stated that one of the people he supposedly interviewed had falsely claimed to be on a plane flying with the Enola Gay, a plane that dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan in 1945.
