Mike Myers Begins Work on Austin Powers 4

It has been no secret that Mike Myers has been working on an Austin Powers 4. There has been mumblings here and there but today it sounds like those mumblings might soon be getting louder as New Line is anxious to have a hit on their hands. This is all despite the fact that Love Guru bombed pretty badly at the box office.

According to Deadline Hollywood Myers has finally began writing the script for Austin Powers 4 as a dedication to his father who passed away in 1991. The story this time around will focus on Dr. Evil and his son, Scott Evil who was played by Seth Green in the other films. Mike McCullers is said to be helping Myers with the writing duties. McCuller also worked with him on parts two and three.

I was never a huge fan of the Austin Powers films but they are pretty funny and they seemed to be getting increasingly better. So will Austin Powers 4 dig Myers out of the hole of The Love Guru? Only time will tell. Be sure to keep it here for more on what is happening on this project.
