Hollywood is not “experimenting” with AI anymore.
It’s quietly becoming part of the pipeline.
Previs, concept art, cleanup, backgrounds, impossible shots, cheap reshoots, whole sequences that used to take teams of VFX artists and insane budgets.
And after seeing what Seedance 2.5 can do, let’s be honest: for a lot of shots, AI is already faster, cheaper, and sometimes just better than classical VFX.
Not for everything. Not yet.
But in less than 3 years, I don’t think there will be major movies without at least some AI-generated shots.
The future of filmmaking won’t announce AI’s arrival, it will simply be impossible to imagine movies without it.
