It’s the Backstreet Boys/*N Sync “zombie western” crossover we’ve all been waiting for

Kevin Beirne

Former Backstreet Boy Nick Carter is writing a “zombie western” and has some familiar faces on board for the project.

The film – named Dead 7 – will also feature Carter’s former bandmates Howie Dorough and A.J. McLean, as well as *N Sync’s Joey Fatone as they look to fight off a zombie apocalypse in the Wild West.

Dead 7 will be produced by Asylum – best known for classics such as Sharknado – and will have a musical theme.

Carter has also said he hopes to convince Jordan Knight of New Kids on the Block to be a part of the cast too, but he is also aiming for some slightly bigger names.

Don’t worry, he’s not just recruiting the stars of yesteryear…
