Chris Kirkpatrick spoke with ET at the New York premiere of 'Deadpool & Wolverine' on Monday.
Chris Kirkpatrick is keeping hope alive for a future *NSYNC reunion.
The singer, 52, walked the carpet at the New York premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine at the David H. Koch Theater in NYC on Monday, where he spoke with ET's Rachel Smith about where plans stand in regard to *NSYNC releasing new music and even potentially going on tour at some point.
"Well, we've been talking about it for a while," Kirkpatrick said. "We're kicking the tires, seeing if the car will still drive, and, you know, we'll see where it leads."
Kirkpatrick and his fellow bandmates -- including Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Lance Bass and Joey Fatone -- reunited last year for a new original song on the soundtrack for Timberlake's film, Trolls Band Together. This got fans clamoring for a reunion with renewed enthusiasm.
Then, in March, Timberlake was joined onstage by his former bandmates during a stop on his Forget the World Tour, and they collaborated on the track "Paradise" off his latest album, Everything I Thought It Was.
"Hopefully, you know, we're all kind of in agreement that, moving forward, our fanbase and a lot of people, still want this," Kirkpatrick continued. "So we can't disappoint them. So it's not a positive, but it's a we'll see."
Recalling his on-stage reunion with the band earlier this year, Kirkpatrick shared, "I was smiling the whole time! I'm like, 'I miss this so much!' ... Those guys are great."
Kirkpartrick was one of several members of *NSYNC who came out for Monday's premiere celebrating Deadpool & Wolverine -- which actually features the band's iconic hit, "Bye Bye Bye," on the soundtrack.
"When we got the call, like, we sign off on a lot of stuff for the songs and it's like, 'Oh, sign off for this, sign off for this,' I saw Deadpool and right away and I was like, 'I will outvote everybody in this band! That this song will be in it,'" Kirkpatrick said.
"It didn't matter what they were gonna vote! I outvote them anyways, I can kick all their asses," he joked, adding, "But, of course, we did [want it in the movie]."
Deadpool & Wolverine hits theaters July 26.
