However, James Cameron did not direct it. He produced it and co-wrote it, but he was not the director.
Kathryn Bigelow directed Strange Days. She also directed Point Break (the original), and is known, most recently, for directing The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, both of which won her Academy Awards for Best Direction.
Interestingly, Bigelow and Cameron were married for a couple years, but Strange Days was made several years after their divorce.
