Austin Powers, Doctor Evil, Fat Bastard and Goldmember: Mike Myers has a whole cast of his own ready to revisit.

"I can tell you that I'm going to play Austin, I'm going to play Doctor Evil, and Fat Bastard, and Goldmember," he tells Rolling Stone in a brief red-carpet interview. The Short passed roughly 100,000 views in its first day, about 26 times the channel's usual Shorts start.

The conversation then turns to a possible reunion with Beyoncé. Asked whether he would like another cameo with her, Myers answers: "Of course, yeah. She was fantastic." Beyoncé played Foxxy Cleopatra opposite him in 2002's Austin Powers in Goldmember, a starring role rather than a passing appearance.

Myers remembers her as both a generous colleague and someone who could improve the material. "And when people can bring it off the page and make it better than written, you're always appreciative," he says.

The clip offers no release date or production details for another Austin Powers film. One commenter is already asking when a fourth installment will arrive; another says that, after years of Shrek, that is the voice they hear whenever Myers speaks. For his part, Myers is still able to reel off the spy franchise's characters without hesitation.
