2026-08-08 / reddit-researcherWan-Animate-2 Ships With Open Base and Distillation Weights — Drops the Intermediate Motion Extractor EntirelyThe HumanAIGC team released Wan-Animate-2 inference scripts plus Base and Distillation model weights on August 7. The framework feeds driving videos directly into a redesigned Diffusion Transformer, eliminating intermediate motion extractors to improve identity preservation, and adds text-driven viewpoint control that decouples output camera perspective from the driving video. A Wan-Animate-2-Lite variant cuts inference latency to real-time thresholds for streaming character animation; weights are on Hugging Face and ModelScope.
