An appearance that is fueling current comeback rumors: Four members of *NSYNC appeared at the premiere of “Deadpool & Wolverine”.
Reunion on the red carpet: At the premiere party for the Marvel spectacle “Deadpool & Wolverine”, the boy band *NSYNC, which disbanded in 2002, was reunited. Completely *NSYNC? No, one person was missing in New York on Monday. And that was the most famous member: Justin Timberlake (43). He is on a solo tour and is currently in Poland. JC Chasez (47), Lance Bass (45), Joey Fatone (47) and Chris Kirkpatrick (52) posed for the photographers in good spirits even without Timberlake.
The morning before the joint premiere, Chris Kirkpatrick had hinted that the band was in town. The presenters naturally confronted him with questions about a reunion of the group and a joint tour. 2025 would be the ideal time. After all, *NSYNC was founded 30 years ago and split up 25 years ago.
“We’re all talking to each other again”: Chris Kirkpatrick on possible reunion
“We’re all talking to each other again, as you can see from some of the stuff we’ve done together recently,” said Chris Kirkpatrick. “We have new songs, which is very different from the last 20 or so years when we weren’t together,” the band’s senior continued. Nothing is set in stone yet, but: “When we know, you’ll know.”
A big comeback by *NSYNC is in the air, and not just because of the double anniversary next year. After all, one took place recently on a smaller scale. Justin Timberlake brought his four ex-bandmates on stage at a concert. It was the first joint appearance of all five since 2013. For the soundtrack of the animated film “Trolls 3: Strength Together”, *NSYNC recorded the song “Better Place” – their first new song after a 22-year break.
Justin Timberlake voiced the main character in “Trolls 3” and can be considered the driving force behind the soundtrack reunion. A large-scale comeback by *NSYNC will also stand or fall with the superstar.
