Jon Landau, the Oscar-winning producer of "Titanic," "Avatar" and "Avatar: The Way of the Water," has died. He was 63.

"The Avatar family grieves the loss of our friend and leader ... His legacy is not just the films he produced, but the personal example he set — indomitable, caring, inclusive, tireless, insightful and utterly unique," Landau's longtime collaborator James Cameron said in a statement.

The films Landau produced with Cameron rank among the highest-grossing of all time, with "Titanic" and the two "Avatar" movies each grossing over $2 billion.
