Seth Green on the Possibility of a Fourth Austin Powers Flick

At the recent press day for Sex Drive, costar Seth Green talked about the possibility of a fourth Austin Powers flick, joking, “I’m sure it’ll get made at the same time as The Brazilian Job.”

Snarkily played, Seth. Kudos. Green then went on to realistically assess the chances of another spy spoof from multi-hyphenate Mike Myers, though. “I don’t think Mike would get behind something that wasn’t good,” he says. “You look at what happened with the Dieter movie, and that’s a testament to the fact that Mike doesn’t want to put shit out in the world, he wants to make things that he really believes are good. He took a big hit for not making that Dieter movie, and it turned into The Cat in the Hat [which Myers agreed to star in to help settle pending litigation from Universal Studios]. So I don’t know how gun-shy he is, but I do know that he’s sincere about his quality-control. So my suspicion is that if Mike wanted to make another Austin Powers, it would be because he had a great idea, and if Mike had a great idea then I’m sure we’d all come back to make that movie.”
