Medalist movie announced for 2027
Per this Twitter post.
No indication of whether this is going to be a true post-Season 2 sequel or just a recap movie.
Edit: Anime News Network says that it's going to be a sequel.
Edit 2: A mod replied with Japanese sources that confirm the movie will be a sequel. Thanks, Basenji!
Is it just recap movie or sequel? Seems like recap to me
As I said in the post, "No indication of whether this is going to be a true post-Season 2 sequel or just a recap movie."
ANN says it's sequel https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-01-17/medalist-anime-gets-film-in-2027/.233172
The actual announcement was vague and unclear about whether or not it's a sequel, but I see at the bottom of that ANN page that it says, "Disclosure: Kadokawa World Entertainment (KWE), a wholly owned subsidiary of Kadokawa Corporation, is the majority owner of Anime News Network, LLC."
So, it's possible that ANN has access to authoritative insider information about the movie being a sequel.

劇場版ではTVアニメ第2期のその後のストーリーが描かれる。
Season 2 didn't even start yet and we already got an announcement for a sequel movie? Let's go!
I'm not a fan of movie-format sequels to TV series that are still airing, because they arrive many months later. Sometimes it can take up to a whole year to see them on this side of the world. If it's not popular, I don't even dream of it being in theaters. Sometimes they aren’t even available on streaming. Too bad.
Wow right before season 2 release and already have movie announcement 
At least now we won't have to wait for an announcement after season 2 ends.
An ice skating movie of the perfect story? This might fill the hole that was left in me when Yuuri!!! on ICE The Movie: ICE ADOLESCENCE was cancelled.
