Austin Powers is a ’Bastard’

How surprising is this? Mike Myers has signed on to star in Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming WWII drama “Inglorious Bastards,” according to Variety.

Myers is set to play British Gen. Ed Fenech, who is part of a plan to terminate a bunch of Nazi leaders.

Only last week, Brad Pitt officially joined the project, which is scheduled to head into production in Germany this October. Pitt plays Lt. Aldo Raine, leader of the Jewish resistance.

Also on board of the ultraviolent flick is Eli Roth, while Simon Pegg, B.J. Novack and several others are still in talks to join.

Aside from the surprise of Eli Roth taking in on the action in “Bastards,” I’ve been pretty happy with the cast announcements so far. But Myers? After the fiasco that was “The Love Guru,” all Myers deserves is a timeout.
