Stray Kids Enlist Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds for ‘Chk Chk Boom’ Video

K-pop stars Stray Kids have unveiled their latest single “Chk Chk Boom,” featuring a star-studded music video with Hollywood heavyweights Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds.

The track, released on Friday, July 19, serves as the lead single for the group’s new mini-album ATE.

The video opens with Jackman and Reynolds reprising their Marvel roles as Wolverine and Deadpool, co-anchoring a fictional news program. Between these comedic segments, Stray Kids deliver a high-energy performance of the bombastic track across rooftop sets and city streets.

“Boom, vamos, I know that you want it / Boom, lobos, we cannot stop hunting / Boom, ratatata, I’mma make it / Boom, boom, chk chk boom,” the group chants in the chorus.

ATE marks Stray Kids’ second release of 2024, following their English single “Lose My Breath” featuring Charlie Puth.

On a recent episode of Apple Music’s All About Stray Kids Radio, Bang Chan and Felix opened up about the new project. Felix revealed that ATE’s overall concept is “something we haven’t done.” Bang Chan agreed, adding that not only is the title track single fresh but “a lot of the other songs [are] as well, it’s all very different… what we recorded, it’s just showing a different side of Stray Kids.”

The K-pop octet’s chart dominance continues to grow, with their previous four projects all debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. This achievement makes Stray Kids the first act to send their first four charting albums to the top spot since Alicia Keys’ run from 2001 to 2007.

Stray Kids have also announced the dominATE world tour, set to kick off later this year and run through 2025. The tour will see the group perform across Asia, Europe, and North America.

In addition to their own project, Stray Kids are contributing an original song titled “Slash” to the upcoming Marvel film, Deadpool & Wolverine. The soundtrack, which drops later this month, also features hits from *NSYNC, Fergie, and the Goo Goo Dolls.

ATE is now available on all major streaming platforms. Check out “Chk Chk Boom” music video below.
