KATSEYE Steps Into Their Next Era With ‘Wild’ EP, ‘Wild Hearts’ Film and Upcoming World Tour

KATSEYE is officially going WILD.

The global girl group enters its next chapter today with the release of its third EP, WILD, continuing a rapid rise that has transformed KATSEYE into one of pop music’s most exciting new acts. The project arrives via HYBE x Geffen Records and features songs including “PINKY UP” and “Animal,” the latter co-written by Ed Sheeran.

But new music is only one piece of KATSEYE’s latest era.

The group is also taking its story to the big screen with KATSEYE: WILD HEARTS, a theatrical film offering fans a more intimate look at the women behind the performances. Featuring behind-the-scenes footage and personal moments, the film traces the group’s evolution from The Debut: Dream Academy into an increasingly global pop phenomenon.

That evolution has come with real challenges. Members Sophia Laforteza and Manon Bannerman are currently on hiatus, leaving Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel and Yoonchae Jeung carrying current promotional appearances. Still, Wild Hearts keeps the group’s full journey — including its highs, pressures and growing pains — at the center of the story.

The group is preparing to launch its WILD WORLD TOUR on September 1 in Dublin, with arena dates scheduled throughout Europe and North America before concluding in Mexico City in November.

With a new EP, theatrical film and global arena tour arriving almost simultaneously, KATSEYE’s WILD era feels bigger than another release cycle. It represents a young group learning how to turn viral moments and breakout records into something much harder to build: longevity.

The world met KATSEYE through a competition. Now, they’re building the pop legacy that comes after it.
