JENNIE Debuts Animated Music Video for Steps Song 'Someone to Hold'
BLACKPINK star JENNIE enters the animated world of Netflix's Steps in the official music video for 'Someone to Hold', an emotional new ballad celebrating sisterhood, connection and the film's reimagined Cinderella story.
BLACKPINK star JENNIE is bringing her voice to the world of animation with 'Someone to Hold', an original song from Netflix's upcoming animated adventure Steps. The newly released music video gives the K-pop superstar an animated makeover, placing her within the film's colourful fairy-tale universe.
Released on 6 November 2026, the track marks JENNIE's first musical contribution to an animated feature film. Written by Justin Tranter, Julia Michaels and Jason Gill, the emotional ballad explores the importance of connection and captures the complicated bond between the story's central sisters.
Rather than retelling Cinderella's familiar romance, Steps approaches the classic fairy tale from the perspective of her supposedly wicked stepsisters, Lilith (Ali Wong) and Margot (Stephanie Hsu).
When Lilith steals the Fairy Godmother's magic wand and disrupts the royal ball, the kingdom falls under the control of a dangerous new ruler. Saving the day requires an unlikely partnership with Cinderella herself, voiced by Amanda Seyfried.
Directed by Alyce Tzue and John Ripa, the film also features Daniel Radcliffe, Bette Midler and Peter Dinklage.
JENNIE's contribution forms part of a soundtrack featuring original music from Rose Gray, EMEI and Amanda Seyfried, alongside an orchestral score by Oscar-winning composer Kris Bowers.
'Someone to Hold' is available now on digital music platforms, while the complete soundtrack arrives alongside Steps on Netflix on 20 November 2026.
With its combination of heartfelt music and imaginative animation, the video offers a glimpse of the emotional themes behind Netflix's unconventional fairy-tale adventure.
