During the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con, Cameron announced that Titanic was in the process of being converted into 3-D for a theatrical re-release; he estimated that it would take six months to a year to do it right, and initially felt that it would be ready at some point in 2011. “We’ve tested it, seen a couple of minutes converted. It looks spectacular. But it really requires the filmmaker to be involved to make sure that the Stereo Space decisions are made correctly,” he said. In March 2010, he set a spring 2012 release date, which was later confirmed through Paramount Pictures in May 2011; the studio said the film is set to be re-released on April 6, 2012, which is both the 100th anniversary year of the sailing of the ship and of Paramount Pictures.
