ByteDance Quietly Rolls Out Seedance 2.0 Globally After Copyright Controversy, Now Available Across Multiple Regions
ByteDance has quietly resumed the global rollout of its AI video generation model Seedance 2.0, making it available to users across Africa, South America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia through CapCut's Dreamina platform. The launch, confirmed on March 26, 2026, comes after the company paused its initial mid-March global release following intense pressure from Hollywood studios over copyright concerns. The controversy erupted when viral AI-generated clips featuring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt fighting demonstrated the model's ability to create realistic depictions of real celebrities without consent. In response, ByteDance has implemented new safeguards including a ban on uploading images of real people. Seedance 2.0 supports multimodal inputs including text, images, audio, and video, capable of generating up to 15-second clips at 2K resolution with native audio. The phased rollout initially targets markets including Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brazil, and Mexico.
