Mike Myers hints at Austin Powers 4

It's what the hell fire that is our current world needs right now. A nonsense film that hits all our nostalgia boxes. A return of Austin Powers.

Mike Meyers, who created and stars as the lovable secret agent, was asked about such a move in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight.

"I can neither confirm nor deny the existence or non-existence of such a project," said Myers, 60, on the red carpet at the 49th AFI Lifetime Achievement Award event on Saturday, April 27, honoring Nicole Kidman.

Asked whether he thinks the character "has more story to tell," the Saturday Night Live alum added simply, "Absolutely."

The actor previously revealed he'd be down for reprising his role as the iconic character in a May 2022 interview with SiriusXM's Jess Cagle, telling the host he "would love to do" a fourth movie in the hit comedy franchise.

Fingers crossed!!!

Anne Heche estate can’t pay bills

Actress Anne Heche's son, Homer Lafoon, says that since her tragic car crash in 2022. the Heche estate has been unable to cover debts left by the troubled woman.

According to records, the estates' assets amount to approximately $110,000, while other inventory is still being appraised. Meanwhile, the estate is facing multiple claims, including three $2 million claims filed by the woman whose rental home and belongings were destroyed in the crash, as well as the couple who owned the home. 

Anne died in a fire crash in Souther California when she is believed to be having a psycholic break and crashed into multiple cars before ultimately crashing into a home at a high rate of speed. The car was engulfed in flames and Anne died shortly after getting to the hospital.

"Based on the anticipated value of the combined Inventories and Appraisals and the filed creditor claims," the report states, "the Estate is insolvent."

Laffoon also notes in the report that sales for Heche's memoir, Call Me Anne, which was released posthumously in January 2023, "are not strong" and less than $25,000 total income is expected from the book. An estate sale is being planned for her personal property. 

So tragic all around.

Blair Witch cast asking for retro payment

Actors Joshua Leonard Michael Williams and Rei Hance (formerly known as Heather Donahue) were the three stars of The Blair Witch Project who not only acted, but improvised most of the dialect in the found footage horror film.

At the time the three acted in the movie they had a budget... and I am not kidding about this... of $60,000! That left almost nothing for actor wages. But then the film grossed an insane $248m and the actors never saw dime one of that win fall.

Now they asking for a retro payment for their work in the 1999 film.

The letter, published on Leonard’s Facebook page, called for “retroactive and future residual payments” for the three actors for their work in the 1999 film, “equivalent to the sum that would’ve been allotted through [actors’ union] Sag-Aftra”, and say they did not have “proper union or legal representation when the film was made”.

“Our film has now been rebooted twice, both times were a disappointment,” the open letter reads. “As the insiders who created the Blair Witch … we’re your single greatest, yet thus-far unutilized secret-weapon!”

“I’m so proud of our little punk-rock movie,” Leonard wrote. “But at this point, it’s 25 years of disrespect from the folks who’ve pocketed the lion’s share … of the profits from our work, and that feels both icky and classless.”
