Ever since Austin Powers in Goldmember was released in 2002, the fourth film in the series has been in development hell. It's been rumored to be in numerous stages of production over the years, but nothing has ever come of it. However, Austin Powers fans still remain hopeful. However, as a fan of the franchise myself, I highly doubt that it's ever going to happen.

For one thing, Goldmember wasn't as well received as the first two movies, with many actually saying that it's the worst one. While I don't hate it, it's definitely the weakest in the trilogy.

Also, Goldmember kind of wrapped up the story of the series with Dr. Evil turning good. Having an Austin Powers movie without Dr. Evil just doesn't sound right. I mean, they were clearly setting up Scott as the new villain, but I'm pretty sure that was just a joke. I like Seth Green, but he really doesn't strike me as an actor who can play a lead villain.

Also, Mike Myers really isn't the hot commodity that he once was. During this time, when Mike Myers made a new movie, it was almost guaranteed to be a success. However, after a series of critical and commercial bombs during the 2000s, his star faded dramatically. His most recent really good project was his cameo in Inglourious Bastards. He did appear in Bohemian Rhapsody, which was pretty good, but his attempt at a comeback with the Netflix series The Pantavorit failed dramatically, putting him back at square one. not to mention his reputation for being a hothead and perfectionist.

It is safe to say that if a fourth Austin Powers movie ever happens, I will be very surprised. pleasantly surprised, but surprised nonetheless.

What are your thoughts, should he at his age?
