It's been a few years since we last heard about any development on a fourth entry in the Austin Powers franchise, but HitFix is now reporting that Mike Myers has just signed on for the comedy sequel. In 2008 it was said that Myers was drafting Austin Powers 4 with Michael McCullers, who teamed with the comedy star for all three previous entries. The focus was to be on the character of Dr. Evil rather than Powers himself and would again feature Seth Green as Evil's son, Scott. Whether this element will carry over to the latest iteration of the project remains to be seen. Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery was released in 1997 and was followed by two sequels, The Spy Who Shagged Me in 1999 and Goldmember in 2002. Outside of voicing the title character in DreamWorks' Shrek franchise, Myers has not headlined a feature since 2008's poorly-received The Love Guru. www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=81032

I don't know about this. Mike Myers is the man but, how do you think that he's going to keep up with the times as far as the comedy in his movies and such?
It's been since 02. I'm hoping for the best.

You're out of your mind, Goldmember is one of the worst films ever committed to celluloid. As for this, I'll believe it when I see it, but Mike Myers is a hack, he's made 2 good movies in his life, and both of them share most of the same jokes.

I could've sworn they already made it. I distinctly remember seeing a movie with Mike Myers, Verne Troyer, and recycled dick jokes.

Great news! I love the movies and while the third film kind of jumped the shark, it's been long enough that I'm ready for another. Should be great...or at least decent.

I want it to hurry up. I really liked the first and second. The third was a let down.

About time, still don't understand why he decided to do Love Guru. Loved all 3 movies. It's Austin Powers, even when it's bad it's funny.
