- R · What Makes It Special
- Runway's Gen-4 video model, built for world consistency: from a single reference image plus instructions it keeps characters, objects and locations consistent across scenes, lighting and camera angles without fine-tuning, and Runway says it produces highly dynamic, realistic motion with strong prompt adherence and marks a step toward simulating physics. It reached paid plans in April 2025, followed by the faster Gen-4 Turbo and Gen-4 References for consistent characters and locations.
