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

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. https://twitter.com/nickcarter/status/619641880779878406 https://twitter.com/nickcarter/status/620280993505779712 Don't worry, he's not just recruiting the stars of yesteryear... https://twitter.com/nickcarter/status/620430279338029056
