King & Prince have announced that they will release their seventh album whose theme is “movie.” The songs on the album are likened to the theme songs of a fictional movie, and they even created the movie’s poster and trailer. This is an unprecedented concept album that only the two of them, Kaito and Ren, could have realized; of course, in case anyone was wondering, they will also be holding a four-dome tour (One more dome than on this year’s tour) to promote this album.

For this album, the two members of King & Prince came up with a concept from scratch so that it can be enjoyed not only by their fans but by everyone who listens to it. As the theme is film, it is a work that can be enjoyed not only through sound but also through visuals. Little by little, more wonderful details related to this new project will be revealed.

In the concept film that has already been released in youtube, a classic, fantastical, yet somehow nostalgic movie theater welcomes visitors. Ren and Kaito play the roles of theater managers. Assisting them are mysteriously moving gloves and the two movie theater managers hand out invitations to invite viewers into the world of “STARRING“. The video is created on a scale reminiscent of a movie and the album includes 12 tracks as “HEART“, “What We Got ~Kiseki wa Kimi to~“, “I Know” and the title track “Theater“.

Each song, as we mentioned earlier, is likened to a “movie” being screened in a fictional movie theater, with a completely original poster and trailer. All the starring roles (which is a nod to the album title: STARRING) are by King & Prince. Filled with love for music and movies, combining the duo’s great passions, this album is a cherished gift for the future of its listeners and Tiaras!

As part of this incredible project in which both artists are deeply involved the latest visuals have recently been released, and a limited-time special X and Instagram account has also been launched, in addition the following events will also take place, consisting of two special prizes; A and B, whose winners will be selected using the codes provided when purchasing the album, the buyers could win tickets to a special red carpet event at movie theaters or an advance preview screenings of trailers and behind-the-scenes footage nationwide, and that’s not all! their second pop-up store have also been announced: “King & Prince POP-UP STORE 2026 STARRING” will be held in five cities nationwide starting next January. Details about the pop-up store and dome tour will be announced at a later date.

Additionally, the Blu-ray and DVD of the Tokyo Dome concert, which was held this year (from May 10th, 2025) as an additional performance to the arena tour “King & Prince LIVE TOUR 24-25 ~Re:ERA~” held in nine cities across Japan last year (from October 26th, 2024), was just released on October 22nd.
