The last time we saw Mike Myers star in a movie and not just voice a green ogre he was The Love Guru and it was beyond awful. The entire thing was just a travesti from start to finish.

HitFix can now confirm that Mike Myers just closed his deal to return to the role. Yep. “Austin Powers 4” is coming, officially.
I enjoyed Austin Powers – International man of mystery back in 1997 as much as the next guy. Allthough Dr. Evil was always the favourite with his iconic pinky gesture and all around cliche Bond villain antics. Austin granted is a funny charachter in a very silly way and lets face it the original and the sequels were just that silly fun movies. My first thought when reading this news is far from positive, I had my fill with this franchise during the first 20 minutes of The Spy Who Shagged Me.
No baby. Just no.
UPDATE – Total film reports
Myers has apparently only just responded to an Austin Powers offer that the company made to him almost a year ago, but so far he has only expressed interest and negotiations are still underway.
