What happens when you take members from the Backstreet Boys, “NSync and 98 Degrees and put them in a zombie western TV movie? Well, we’re not sure either but Dead 7 will no doubt be a must-see for their fans. The guys seem to be loving it too.
“We’ve crossed paths on tours, we’ve been to radio shows together and we’ve competed with one another in the ’90s,”; says BSB’s Nick Carter from the set, “so this gave us an opportunity to connect.”;
Joining Nick on the project are fellow Backstreeters Howie Dorough and A.J. McLean. Repping “NSync are Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone. And for 98 Degrees’ fans, there’s Jeff Timmons.
“This is the first time we’ve actually got to sit down and get to know each other,”; says Jeff.
The all-star cast of boy banders was Nick’s idea. He also wrote the screenplay to Dead 7, which is being made by the same studio that brought us Sharknado. Yes, that Sharknado.
“You can classify it as a B-movie or whatever,”; says Nick, “but people just want to watch entertaining stuff.”;
Dead 7 will air on SyFy next year.
