Summary

Lionsgate has expanded its relationship with Runway by taking an undisclosed stake and planning to co-develop new content using Runway’s generative AI models. The partnership will start with a short-form episodic series that combines Lionsgate IP with Runway’s technology. Lionsgate has already been using Runway’s tools for pre-visualisation, storyboarding, and final-frame production since the earlier partnership announced in 2024. The deal reinforces Lionsgate’s broader AI strategy and points to deeper use of AI across production workflows.
