Gen-4

Runway · 31 March 2025

Gen-4 keeps characters, objects and locations consistent across shots from a single reference image, with no fine-tuning.

Aimed at narrative continuity, the main weakness of earlier video models. Set a look from reference images, then regenerate the scene from new angles. Pitched as a step toward world models with better physics. Released with a 'Gen-4 References' image workflow, and Gen-4 Turbo followed.
