Disney Agrees to Bring Its Characters to OpenAI’s Sora Videos

 

 

"Disney is the first major Hollywood company to cross this particular Rubicon. Many actors, animators and writers have raised alarms about the possibility of A.I.-generated shows and movies replacing them en masse.

Sora users will be able to make videos with more than 200 characters from Disney’s library, including from “Encanto,” “Frozen,” “Moana,” “Toy Story,” “Zootopia,” “Inside Out” and other animated movies. Animated or illustrated versions of Marvel characters like Deadpool, Iron Man and Black Panther will also be available, along with “Star Wars” characters like Darth Vader and Princess Leia.

That means Sora users could make videos of themselves in a lightsaber battle with Luke Skywalker or a custom birthday video using Buzz Lightyear."
