"T2 was made for theatres, and our lovingly-prepared 3D version, coming back to the big screen, is the absolute best way to see the film. I believe it's safe to do spoilers after 35 years, so Spoiler Alert: the good guys win against the AI superintelligence! And maybe that's a message of hope we all could use this summer," said James Cameron.
"We are incredibly proud to mark the 35th Anniversary of James Cameron's masterpiece Terminator 2: Judgment Day in partnership with the passionate teams at Fathom Entertainment and Rialto Pictures in the U.S. This collaboration has been thrilling, and we cannot wait for audiences to mark Judgment Day in theatres all over the world this August," said Anna Marsh, CEO of StudioCanal, Chief Content Officer of Canal+.
"Terminator 2: Judgment Day was a cultural phenomenon in the U.S. upon release and 35 years later, remains a timeless, non-stop thrill ride that audiences – new and old – will love to see. With non-stop action, iconic performances from Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton, spectacular sound and visual effects, and even a massive hit song by Guns N' Roses ("You Could Be Mine"), the re-release of T2 is a must-see theatrical event perfect for 3D and other premium formats," said Ray Nutt, Chief Executive Officer for Fathom Entertainment.
