LOS ANGELES, Aug. 31 (UPI) -- Terminator 2: Judgement Day is receiving a theatrical 3-D re-release in 2017.
The news was confirmed Monday on the film's official Facebook page alongside a new movie poster featuring star Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The date, Aug. 29, symbolizes when Skynet becomes self-aware in the series and begins to eradicate humanity.
"August 29th 1997: The day Skynet first became self aware. August 29th 2016: the day you first saw the brand new poster for Terminator 2 in 3D. Coming to theaters in 2017," the post reads.
Originally released in 1991, Terminator 2 directed by James Cameron, was a box-office smash and is considered a sci-fi action classic.
"If you've never seen it, this'll be the version you want to see and remember," Cameron said in a statement about the 3-D re-release according to Collider.
Terminator 2 was followed up by 2003's Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, 2009's Terminator: Salvation, and 2015's Terminator: Genisys, all of which Cameron had no involvement in. Genisys, which starred Schwarzenegger, is unlikely to receive a sequel due to its poor box office performance.
