You have two safe options: use a celebrity\u2019s Cameo if they\u2019ve opted in or create a celebrity-inspired AI character. Direct uploads of real celebrity photos are blocked, and unauthorized likeness use is prohibited. From my experience, Cameos deliver the most authentic and high-quality results, while AI-generated celebrity-like characters offer creative flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sora 2\u2019s power is undeniable. However, accessing Sora 2 still <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/how-to-get-a-sora-2-invite-code-step-by-step-guide\/\">requires an invite code<\/a>. If you don\u2019t have one, there\u2019s no need to worry \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home\/sora-2?inviter=hub_content_sora&amp;login=1\">Global GPT has already integrated Sora 2<\/a>, allowing you to use it freely without an invite. Plus, it comes with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/how-to-get-around-sora-2-content-restrictions\/\">fewer content restrictions<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/how-to-remove-watermarks-in-sora-2\/\">no watermark issues<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Global GPT also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home\/sora-2?inviter=hub_content_sora&amp;login=1\">includes <strong>Sora 2 Pro<\/strong><\/a>, which normally requires the $200 per month ChatGPT Pro plan. With Global GPT, you get the same Pro-level video generation, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/home\/sora-2?inviter=hub_content_sora&amp;login=1\">up to 25-second videos<\/a>, without the expensive subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an all-in-one AI platform, Global GPT also offers video models like <strong>Veo 3.1, Kling, and Wan 2.6<\/strong>, research and writing with <strong>Perplexity, ChatGPT 5.2, Gemini 3 Pro, and Claude Sonnet 4.5<\/strong>, plus image generation via <strong>Nano Banana Pro<\/strong> and <strong>Midjourney<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of July 27, 2026, GlobalGPT\u2019s pricing page lists annual discounts of up to <strong>50%<\/strong>, with Basic at $5.80\/month, Pro at $10.80\/month, and Unlimited at $25\/month when billed annually.

Cameos provide the most realistic results, while AI-generated celebrity-like characters give creative freedom. With the right prompts, lighting, and settings, you can create professional-quality videos ready for social sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Current takeaway for July 27, 2026:<\/strong> The paragraph above describes the former consumer Cameo workflow. Today, the official Sora 2 API does not generate real people or public figures, and GlobalGPT\u2019s Sora page also prohibits celebrity likeness uploads. Use original fictional characters, keep rights to every input, and review the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/can-i-use-sora-2-ai-videos-for-commercial-use-the-2026-legal-licensing-guide\/\">Sora 2 commercial-use and likeness checklist<\/a> before publishing client or monetized work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faq\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Sora 2 still available as of July 27, 2026?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OpenAI\u2019s consumer Sora web and app ended on April 26, 2026, so official Sora 2 can no longer be used as a consumer product. GlobalGPT provides a stable, separate Sora 2 access route. OpenAI\u2019s developer API is deprecated and scheduled to close on September 24, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I generate celebrities or public figures with the official Sora 2 API?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. OpenAI\u2019s current video guide says real people, including public figures, cannot be generated; input images with human faces are rejected, and human-likeness character uploads are blocked by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I still use celebrity Cameos in Sora 2?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not through OpenAI\u2019s discontinued consumer app. Cameo controls and permissions on this page are historical references; the current official API does not provide a public-figure Cameo workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How much does the official Sora 2 API cost?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Official Standard pricing is $0.10 per second for Sora 2 and $0.30\u2013$0.70 for Sora 2 Pro by resolution. Batch rates are $0.05 and $0.15\u2013$0.35 per second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Sora 2 available on GlobalGPT, and what does it cost?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. GlobalGPT provides a stable, separate Sora 2 access route. As of July 27, 2026, Pro is $19.90 monthly or $10.80\/month annually, and the page warns users not to upload real faces or celebrity likenesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can I create instead of an exact celebrity likeness?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use an original fictional adult with distinct, non-identifying traits. Avoid celebrity names, exact facial features, face photos, and copyrighted characters; build the look from wardrobe, lighting, camera style, and mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens to the Sora 2 API after September 24, 2026?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OpenAI has scheduled the Videos API, sora-2, sora-2-pro, and listed snapshots for removal on that date, and the deprecations page lists no recommended replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I use a Sora 2 video commercially?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commercial use depends on rights to every input and output element, local publicity and copyright law, and the platform\u2019s terms. A license to use the tool does not grant rights to a celebrity\u2019s likeness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"@id\": \"https:\/\/www.glbgpt.com\/hub\/how-to-use-celebrities-in-sora-2\/#faq-schema\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n        {\n          \"@type\": \"Question\",\n          \"name\": \"Is Sora 2 still available as of July 27, 2026?\",\n          \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n            \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n            \"text\": \"OpenAI\u2019s consumer Sora web and app ended on April 26, 2026, so official Sora 2 can no longer be used as a consumer product.
