Several older films like Jaws are being rereleased in 3D. How do the studios convert the film from 2D to 3D? I thought 3D required filming with two cameras.

There’s a ton of different ways to convert 2d to 3d, nowadays it’s all “Automatic” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2D_to_3D_conversion%23Automatic_conversion
The software is Tracking either movement, focus or blur to generate the 3d effect as a new layer
> It is possible to automatically estimate depth using different types of motion. In case of camera motion, a depth map of the entire scene can be calculated. Also, object motion can be detected and moving areas can be assigned with smaller depth values than the background.
