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.
I'm literally out of my damn mind but… @PaulMcCartney would you make a cameo in my movie??? LMFAO #Dead7 P.s. You're GOD of boy-bands.
