Mike Myers is keeping his cards close to his chest about whether the current political climate will find its way into the fourth Austin Powers movie, but he does have one message in mind: the world could use a little more love. The actor has finally given fans something to chew on as he works on bringing his iconic British spy back to the big screen.

After more than two decades since Austin Powers in Goldmember, the prospect of another adventure has fans wondering what the groovy secret agent would make of today's world. And considering the franchise has always enjoyed poking fun at politics, pop culture, and larger-than-life personalities, a contemporary spin would hardly be out of character.

Myers, however, is not quite ready to reveal all his secrets. Although he has offered a glimpse of the film's possible message, he is keeping the finer details under wraps.

Speaking on the red carpet at the New York premiere of Focker-in-Law on November 11 to Variety, Mike Myers was asked whether the current political climate would influence his upcoming Austin Powers movie. His response was as cheeky as one would expect from the man behind the famously unpredictable spy.

“I can neither confirm nor deny the existence or nonexistence of such a commentary,” Myers teased. However, he did offer a little more insight into the direction he might take, suggesting that the world has been through enough fear lately and could use a change of pace.

“In the last few weeks, I think fear has had it and love is on the way back. If anything, that’s what the Austin Powers movie is going to be about. What the world needs now is love, sweet love,” he said.

While Myers stopped short of confirming whether the movie will directly address specific political events, his comments suggest that its central message could be rooted in optimism and togetherness. And if anyone can deliver a message about love while wearing velvet suits, sporting questionable teeth, and making international espionage look like a party, it is Austin Powers.

As Myers gave the trivia about Austin Powers and his favorite Shrek movie, his latest addition, Focker-In-Law, to another beloved comedy franchise also has quite a family-sized mess waiting for audiences.

The fourth installment in the Meet the Parents franchise, Focker-In-Law, reunites Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro, with John Hamburg returning as writer and director. This time, the story shifts to Greg Focker's grown-up son, Henry, played by Skyler Gisondo, who plans to marry his girlfriend, Olivia, portrayed by Ariana Grande.

Unfortunately, Greg is not exactly welcoming his future daughter-in-law with open arms. A former FBI hostage negotiator, Olivia quickly wins over the rest of the family, including Jack Byrnes, leaving Greg increasingly suspicious of her.

The returning cast includes Owen Wilson, Teri Polo, and Blythe Danner, alongside newcomers Beanie Feldstein and Eduardo Franco. The film is scheduled to arrive in theaters on November 25, 2026. Between a new generation of Fockers and a return of Austin Powers, comedy fans have plenty to look forward to.
