The new release date was shared on the "Terminator 2" Facebook page alongside a restyled poster.
"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 captioned read.
Filmmaker James Cameron has been trying to convert the film into 3D for years, saying in 2014 that they weren't "ruling it out", while last year he made the announcement that the 3D conversion was actually happening.
