Could 'Austin Powers 4' Really be a Possibility?
New rumors say, 'Yes.'
The Boston Globe of all places, is reporting a rumor that super model and Tom Brady play thing, Gisele Bundchen, is being considered for the female lead in an Austin Powers 4. The site reports there is a script and Bundchen will meet with star Mike Myers and director Jay Roach soon. What? Roach is even attached as the director?
Roach directed the first four Powers films so it would be likely he would direct the fourth, but this is the first I have heard of him being attached to direct a film that really hasn't even been hinted at until now. As for Bundchen this isn't out of the realm of possibility considering the last Powers Girl was Beyonce Knowles, whose acting experience prior to that was only the MTV drama "Carmen: A Hip Hopera". Bundchen has been seen in 2004's comedy Taxi as Vanessa, one of the bank robbers, and in a small role in The Devil Wears Prada.
However, how real is this whole thing? New Line, who distributed the first three films has folded into Warner Bros. and Mike Myers' upcoming The Love Guru doesn't seem to be appealing to any audiences. Just shy of 45-years-old, it seems to me Myers is best served to continue to be the voice of a green ogre as opposed to bringing back a character made famous 11 years ago.
I mean, check it out below, he is now shilling for Justin Timberlake as "the single most talented human being [he's] ever met in [his] life." JT is rather impressive, but uh… Really?

i would not be surprised if it did happen. to be honest im wondering why its taken so long with how new line has been doing. To be honest i was not a fan of the third one and the jokes seem to be getting old and i dont know how well it will do. All we can do is just sit back and hope that it might be really funny (if we liked any of the other ones0. But not get our hopes too high
I think the majority of the people agree with you on this and I think this is the main reason a fourth one wasn't made. They would have to come up with something completely different because I don't think they would want the fourth one to be a major dud.
