A Movie About NSYNC Superfans Is in the Works with Lance Bass Producing!

An NSYNC movie is in the works!

Sony label TriStar Pictures has acquired an untitled feature film about NSYNC superfans, Variety reports.

Lance Bass, who first teased the movie at SXSW last year, is producing along with Cindy Cowan.

Described as Girls Trip meets Pitch Perfect, the film is inspired by the true story of “two best friends from Park City, Utah, who used game show earnings to buy a motor home and travel the U.S. to catch Bass and company — Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick — on their fourth and final national tour.”

According to the outlet, Lance Bass has said that music will play a major role in the flick, which could possibly be turned into a Broadway production later on.

Joey Fatone Comments on Possible NSYNC Reunion!

Joey Fatone was asked about the possibility NSYNC getting back together!

The 42-year-old former boy band member opened up while speaking to Billboard‘s Pop Shop Podcast in honor of the 20th anniversary of their album No Strings Attached.

After the guys – minus Justin Timberlake – performed with Ariana Grande at Coachella, Joey says, “We started getting phone calls, of course. ‘Well, are you guys back together? What are you doing? Oh my gosh! There’s an offer here.’ This, that. There were offers thrown on the table, but the whole thing was, I don’t think we were ready for it yet. I don’t think even at the moment, like to really mentally wrap our head around to see what we want to do, and I think that’s the conservation that we really have to have that we haven’t had yet. It’s really going: ‘Do we wanna do it, or do we not? And if we do want to do it, what is it?’ And that’s something that will definitely take some time.”

“It’s not a no, but it’s not a yes, because the thing is, we may come up with an idea that may not work for all of us,” Joey Fatone added about an NSYNC reunion. “If I did do something like this, I think it’s just something that definitely we will wanna do maybe more music, but also have fun, do you know what I mean? … There’s not a lot of pressure anymore. Usually back in the day, it was, ‘You need to be No. 1. You need to do this. This should be that. This should be this.’ For us, if we ever came back out, it’s like it’d be nice to do all this stuff and be No. 1, but we’ve already done it. We’re in our 40s! We got kids now! The backstage is going to be completely different, that’s for damn sure! There’ll be a lot more kids running around, no groupies.”

Ahead of the ceremony, the group also launched a pop-up shop in Los Angeles including iconic looks from the era, which runs from April 28 to May 1.

JC revealed that the group “agreed on dressy casual” for the ceremony, which will be the first time he reunites with Joey Fatone, Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick and Lance Bass since his 40th birthday party in 2016.

“For me, [Mickey] Mouse Club was high school, *NSYNC was college and now I’m living life! I think everybody goes through those different phases, and that’s also what can make us relatable to a lot of people. We’re just doing it like everybody else,” he said.

“We’ll still give them a little bit here and little bit there, but there aren’t any plans for music. There are no talks about a reunion tour now. You get cool merch for now, and then the future is what it is.”
