A new theatrical film, Aikatsu Stars! ~Hoshiboshi no Progress~, was announced as part of the series' 10th anniversary project. It will hit theaters in early spring 2027. A teaser video and visual featuring Yume Nijino in a new dress were released. Director Teruo Sato and scriptwriter Yuko Kakihara reunite for the film.
The announcement came as a surprise after-credits segment during revival screenings of Gekijouban Aikatsu Stars! -Anniversary Stars-, which began July 3 at 70 theaters nationwide. The teaser video mixes nostalgic TV series footage with new cuts and carries the message "Thank you for 10 years." Advance ticket sales started the same day, with a limited A5 clear file featuring Yume from the teaser visual as a bonus.
The film is part of a broader "All Aikatsu!" expansion that includes the return of the data carddass game as Aikatsu! Encore in October 2026 and an encore broadcast of the original TV anime on terrestrial television.
