Overview
- Cameron, in a Letterboxd interview published Tuesday, said he is thinking about converting his 1986 film Aliens to stereoscopic 3D.
- He called the movie "evergreen" and said improved depth-map technology now makes a high-quality conversion more achievable.
- There is no timetable, as his schedule is dominated by Avatar 4 and 5 along with the feature project Ghosts of Hiroshima.
- Earlier conversions of Titanic and Terminator 2 each took about a year, with reports citing an $18 million budget for Titanic and more than 1,400 artists on T2.
- Both the theatrical and director's cuts of Aliens are streaming on HBO Max, keeping the film in view for fans ahead of any potential re-release.
