Dramatic music plays in the background before the clip ends with the full tour name reveal.
The 18-show run will reunite the group's four members after they spent the past year focusing on solo projects.
Jennie released Ruby, Lisa launched Alter Ego, Rosé debuted Rosie, and Jisoo unveiled Amortage.
'By next year, I think I would just keep releasing music and get together with the girls. I can't wait to share with the girls what I've been doing,' Lisa told Rolling Stone in its Musicians on Musicians issue last year.
Blackpink announced the tour in February, marking their first world tour since Born Pink in 2022.
The tour will begin in Seoul before continuing with four North American shows in Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago and New York in mid-July.
The group will also perform at Tokyo Dome in Japan in mid-January 2026.
It is unclear if Blackpink will release new music before the tour.
Speaking to Variety in May after launching her collaboration with Bose, Lisa said, 'We're all so super excited to get back together and go on tour. We really miss the Blinks. We can't wait to see them.'
Blinks are the official name for Blackpink's fanbase.

Mia Goth Joins Ryan Gosling in Shawn Levy's STAR WARS: STARFIGHTER — GeekTyrant
Mia Goth is officially joining the Star Wars universe. The actress known for her wild, intense performances in Pearl , Infinity Pool , and MaXXXine , is now co-starring with Ryan Gosling in Star Wars: Starfighter , the new standalone film from director Shawn Levy. There's no word yet on who Goth is playing, but her casting immediately adds some interesting energy to the project. I assume she will be playing the villain, a role that was previously offered to Mikey Madison and Jodie Comer. Starfighter is set about five years after The Rise of Skywalker, picking up the galaxy's story after the Skywalker saga ended. The film will introduce a fresh set of characters and carve out new territory in the canon. The story revolves around a "a 15-year-old boy on a mission with his uncle, played by Ryan Gosling. They're being pursued by a duo of villains—one male, one female.' At this year's Star Wars Celebration in Tokyo, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and chief creative officer Dave Filoni officially announced the project, setting the stage for a new theatrical era of Star Wars . The film is expected to begin shooting this fall and is locked in for a May 28, 2027 release. Levy Previously said of the film: 'This is a standalone. It's not a prequel, not sequel. It's a new adventure. It's set in a period of time that we haven't seen explored yet.' Behind the scenes, Jonathan Tropper is writing the script. Tropper has a long creative history with Levy, having written The Adam Project and This Is Where I Leave You , and he's also the creator of Apple TV+'s Your Friends & Neighbors . This marks another unexpected pivot in Goth's career, which is full of very wild and interesting choices. She'll soon be seen in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein , sharing the screen with Jacob Elordi and Oscar Isaac, and is also set for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey alongside an ensemble that includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, and Robert Pattinson. I'm really curious to see how this Star Wars: Starfighter movie turns out. Source: Variety

The Question Everyone's Asking After ‘Ginny & Georgia' Season 3
Spoilers below. Somebody get Maury Povich in touch with Georgia Miller. The 'Mayoress Murderess' of Wellsbury and co-lead protagonist of Netflix's hit dramedy Ginny & Georgia is officially pregnant again—for real this time!—and she might need some help determining paternity. In season 3, Georgia fakes a pregnancy using her daughter's (real) positive pregnancy test, so as to convince her husband, Mayor Paul Randolph, not to divorce her during her ongoing murder trial. But before she makes this objectively awful decision, Georgia first comforts her daughter, Ginny, after the latter has an abortion. As the two cuddle on the couch, Georgia shares that, when she herself was pregnant as a teenager, she wanted 'milk, just all the time. Straight from the carton. I would've sucked a cow.' She also jokes to Ginny, 'We are very fertile. Men sneeze at me, I'm ovulatin'. I had two kids before I could legally order a margarita.' Both throwaway lines serve as foreshadowing for what's to come in the finale episode, when a freed Georgia trots through the kitchen, drinking a quart of milk straight from the carton. 'Mom,' a startled Ginny begins, 'didn't you say you drink milk when you're pregnant?' The look on Georgia's face quickly confirms Ginny's suspicions. So has show creator Sarah Lampert, who asserts that Georgia is indeed pregnant. The big question everyone's asking, then: Who's the father? As Lampert joked to Netflix's Tudum, 'Ginny gets pregnant, Georgia fakes a pregnancy, and then Georgia really gets pregnant, and we don't know who the dad is. And when you say these things out loud, you're like, 'What in the world is this show?!'' (A fair question.) There are two potential options for the baby's father, as far as the audience knows: Mayor Paul and Blue Farm Café owner Joe, who first met Georgia as a teenager. Earlier in the season, Georgia sleeps with her then-husband Paul in a last-ditch effort to make their marriage work, before she makes the false pregnancy claim. Later, Paul leaves her and she makes the decision to skip town and dodge her trial. Joe shows up at her door hours before she makes a run for it, and the two end up sleeping together. 'In that moment, who shows up, but Joe, and he's not there to make a move,' Lampert told Deadline. 'He's not there in a romantic like, 'Oh, man, she really needs a friend.' So there's a little bit of an opening there for them to appreciate new things about each other. Because for him, it's always been this infatuation.' And if her reciprocation is any indicator, Georgia has feelings for him, too. So, who is the father of her unborn child? By the end of the season, it's clear that Paul and Georgia's relationship is officially over. There's little but hurt between them now, which has led Brianne Howey, who plays Georgia, to theorize that Joe would make for a better dad. 'Seeing the way things ended [between Georgia and Paul], seeing all of our true colors, and what we brought out of one another, I think the healthiest option for everyone was probably for that relationship to dissolve,' Howey told Tudum. 'And perhaps someone new is about to be a dad,' she teases. Added Raymond Ablack, who plays Joe, 'I would die of a broken heart [if Paul were the father].' Lampert told TVLine in a post-finale interview that, despite some early 'debate,' the Ginny & Georgia writers' room has indeed 'landed on whose baby it is.' Still, she insisted in a separate interview with Deadline that she can always change her mind. 'Here's what I'll say about that,' she told the outlet. 'I know whose baby she's carrying, but I went into the writer's room this season and I said, 'Here's who the daddy is. Change my mind.' So it's live wire in there. I'm telling you right now, I am open to being convinced otherwise.' Clearly, when it comes to love affairs, so is Georgia. After she turned down Joe's advances in the season 3 finale, she might have to reconsider her relationship with him when season 4 comes around. Until then, she'll just have to frequent the dairy aisle. This story will be updated.

'Mass Effect' Series Moving Forward With 'Star Trek' Writer
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors All the way back in June 2021, "Mass Effect: Legendary Edition" project director Marc Walters told Business Insider that it was "not a matter of if, but when" that "Mass Effect" was adapted to the screen. That "when" just got a lot closer with the hiring of a showrunner. Deadline reports that Amazon MGM Studios, which has been working on developing a "Mass Effect" series since 2021, has hired "Star Trek Beyond" writer Doug Jung as showrunner of the project. Read More: Everything We Know About Netflix's Season 4 of 'Ginny & Georgia' Jung's other credits include "The Cloverfield Paradox" and more recently the Jason Momoa-led Apple TV+ series "Chief of War". He also wrote for "Mindhunter", "Big Love", and extensively for the crime drama "Dark Blue". Key art for Mass Effect shows Commander Shepard and his allies against a space backdrop Key art for Mass Effect shows Commander Shepard and his allies against a space backdrop Electronic Arts Jung will be working alongside Dan Casey, who Deadline reports has already been writing for the project for the past year. Jung and Casey will produce. Also producing are Ari Arad and Emmy Yu of Arad Productions, Michael Gamble of Electronic Arts, and Karim Zreik of Cedar Tree Productions. The first "Mass Effect" game was released in 2007, putting the player in control of Commander Shepard, a human soldier who finds himself on a quest to stop the ancient, malevolent A.I. villains known as the Reapers. Shepard's story was told in a total of three games, and then in 2017 came a story following a brand new group of heroes, "Mass Effect: Andromeda". Along the way were the mobile games "Mass Effect Galaxy" and "Mass Effect Infiltrator". Perhaps one of the biggest and obvious questions fans will want to have answered about the "Mass Effect" adaptation - assuming it adapts the story of the original game trilogy - is what gender Commander Shepard will be. The "Mass Effect" games are known for letting players make big choices that impact the outcome of the games, including the gender of the hero. The games also present the players with choices that can mean the life or death of many of the story's chief characters. Of course, there's no guarantee that the "Mass Effect" TV series will adapt the original trilogy. Like most popular video game franchises, "Mass Effect" is still expanding. "Andromeda" took the story in another direction and there is a fifth installment on the way.
