*NSYNC Halts Biopic to Explore Upcoming Tour Options
The anticipated *NSYNC biopic has been officially shelved as the band members focus on exploring options for a potential reunion tour. Sources indicate that the project failed to progress due to the group’s uncertainty about the initial pitch and the chosen producer.
*NSYNC Biopic Details and Reunion Tour Plans
According to reports, the idea for the biopic was introduced by Justin Timberlake’s manager after producer Neal H. Moritz began promoting it. However, the band collectively decided that Moritz might not be the best fit for the project.
Key Points Regarding the Biopic
- The film never reached the screenwriting stage.
- All five members agreed they would serve as producers if the film moved forward.
- Justin Timberlake emphasized the need for equal involvement from all band members.
Despite the interest in a biopic, the band is also considering its 30th anniversary. Reports indicate that Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, JC Chasez, and Chris Kirkpatrick are in discussions for a possible tour, even if Timberlake is not involved.
Tour Discussions and Opportunities
In August, the quartet received an offer for a significant stadium tour in partnership with Live Nation and AEG for 2026. Although the proposal was presented to all five, Timberlake has not engaged in discussions regarding the tour.
The Hollywood Reporter initially hinted at the biopic plans in January, but ongoing management issues among the members stalled the project. As of now, the consensus is clear: if a reunion tour does not materialize and does not include full participation from all five members, the biopic will remain indefinitely in limbo.
The band’s motto resonates strongly here: it’s all or nothing in the pursuit of reviving their iconic story. Fans eager to see both a revival of the beloved group and a potential cinematic portrayal will have to wait for further developments.
