Justin Timberlake may not be down to join his NSYNC bandmates on their rumored 25th anniversary reunion tour.
Chris Kirkpatrick, a co-founder of NSYNC, was asked about the possibility of his highly acclaimed boyband going on a stadium tour next summer to celebrate their 25th anniversary.
"We're all talking again as you've seen some of the stuff we've done together lately. We have two new songs, which is a lot different than the last 20 or so years that we haven't been together," he told New York Living.
The 52-year-old singer went on to say, "So there's a lot. There's a lot we're talking about. Nothing in stone yet...When we know, you'll know."
"I am, yeah. I'm doing the Pop 2000 now, which is basically me by myself without those guys, so I miss them. We're all buds. We're all good friends," Kirkpatrick added.
Four of the five original members, Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, and Lance Bass, gathered at the world premiere of "Deadpool & Wolverine" in Manhattan on Monday for a special reunion event. Notably absent from the group was Timberlake, who is in Polland.
The 43-year-old pop star is said to be fully dedicated to his extensive 86-date "Forget Tomorrow World Tour" and preparing for his upcoming performance this Friday at Poland's Tauron Arena in Kraków.

This follows reports from TMZ claiming that the "Cry Me A River" singer has not responded to proposals presented to him and his team four months ago regarding a possible NSYNC reunion tour.
The other members involved are reportedly "disappointed" by his lack of communication.
"[Bass] coordinated a meeting between [Kirtpatrick, Chasez, and Fatone] Monday in NYC to discuss the future of the band, and what it potentially looks like if they go forward without [Timberlake] ... should he opt out of this opportunity," the outlet reported.
Not only were the bandmates feeling let down by Timberlake's radio silence, but the report further claimed that "Sony was also hoping for a big push on the 25th anniversary for the sake of the band's old catalog."
This upcoming Friday is also the same day Timberlake is scheduled to appear in court for his hearing related to a charge of driving while intoxicated and violations for disregarding a stop sign and failing to maintain his lane. These legal matters originated from his arrest for DWI on June 18 in Sag Harbor, New York.
