Rolling Stone has the details of the movie, which is “tentatively titled Dead 7” and will be written by Nick Carter. “I WANT TO MAKE A MOVIE” and then made machine gun hands and went “Duhduhduhduhduh!”
Moviegoers who are intrigued by the 1990s pop angle this film seems to be accumulating will also be pleased to know that Carter is reportedly in talks with Jordan Knight from Boston boyband New Kids On The Block to also star. McLean. So far, the only ‘NSync member that has signed up is Joey Fatone.
At first glance, this sounds like a pretty awful idea, but Carter’s teamed up with production company The Asylum, The minds behind SyFy’s insanely popular franchise – Sharknado – so maybe there’s some gold in the idea after all. I don’t think I ever knew true happiness until this moment.
Despite Carter’s relative lack of movie-making experience, The Asylum co-founder David Rimawi had no qualms about getting behind the project, explaining, “He’s a giant horror movie fan and very talented individual”. He recently appeared at Comic-Con in San Diego to promote the film. “Now we’re setting the record straight by doing a film together”, he said. “We’ve never done anything together collectively”.

Attention, cinephiles: The great auteurs who brought us Sharknados I and II are setting their sights on a new project, and it might just change the course of film history. “But it’s so amusing – there’s never been animosity or anything like that”.
