The Backstreet Boys and NSYNC Are Starring in a Zombie Movie Together

It's a divide that has torn people apart for years, but now you won't actually have to be team Backstreet Boys or team NSYNC.

BSB's Nick Carter and AJ McLean are starring in an upcoming zombie movie written and directed by Nick himself. It will also feature none other than NSYNC's Joey Fatone. The SyFy channel movie is called Dead 7, and will also star Nick's wife, Lauren Kitt.

Dead 7 follows a ragtag band of gunslingers who must rid a small town of a zombie plague in a post-apocalyptic West, the film's synopsis reads, and not surprisingly, is produced by The Asylum, the same studio responsible for Sharknado.

And if Nick gets his way, One Direction's Niall Horan will play his brother!

"Ok @NiallOfficial I know we're from different generations but...would you like to play my brother in this zombie movie with me? #Dead7," Nick tweeted on Saturday.

Hey, we can definitely see the resemblance!

... Though can't Aaron Carter just step in for the role?
