Terminator 2 3D Rerelease in the Works

A remastered 3D rerelease of Terminator 2: Judgment Day is currently in the works and will open in theaters across the globe in 2016.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, James Cameron is partnering with both DMG Entertainment and Studiocanal "to supervise and produce" the film's conversion to 3D using StereoD's technology.

"Next year marks the 25th anniversary of Terminator 2 and that seemed like the perfect time to bring it back but this time in an all-new 3D version," Cameron said. "If you’ve never seen it, this’ll be the version you want to see and remember."

While the film will be released worldwide, it's being primarily targeted at China. Terminator 2 never had a theatrical release in the region and there's a huge following for the franchise. As such, DMG's China division will be working with China Film Group to bring the movie to Chinese theaters.
