Michael John Myers, commonly known as Mike Myers, is a famous Canadian comedian, film producer, voice actor, as well as an actor. To the majority of people, Mike Myers is perhaps best known for playing the role of Austin Powers in the “Austin Powers” film series. The first installment of the series entitled “Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery” came out in 1997, and featured a cast of Elizabeth Hurley, Michael York, and Mimi Rogers. The movie turned out to be a moderate box office success at the time, grossing slightly more than $67 million worldwide. However, over the years, the film reached the status of a hit classic, and once again enjoyed popularity among its viewers. This perhaps was the main reason for the release of two more sequels, namely “Austin Powers: The Spy that Shagged Me” and “Austin Powers in Goldmember”. Both of the movies turned out to be box office hits, as they grossed $312 million and $297 million respectively. Even though the two sequels enjoyed a larger media attention, critical reviews towards them were rather mixed, while some were even negative. In this aspect, both sequels failed to repeat the critical acclaim of the first film. Nevertheless, the “Austin Powers” series managed to maintain its popularity, and inspire the release of numerous video games, such as “Austin Powers: Welcome to My Underground Lair!” and “Austin Powers Collectible Card Game”.
