Myers and Alba Team Up For "The Love Guru"
The much anticipated new comedy, The Love Guru, marks the end of a self imposed break for Mike Myers that has been in effect since his Austin Powers series finished up. Joining Myers in his latest venture is Hollywood favorite Jessica Alba, who comes in fresh off of her latest blockbuster, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.
In the film, Myers will play a character named Pikta, who's a self-help guru specializing in couple's relationship problems.
According to Actress Archives, the plot has Pitka trying to "settle a rift between a star hockey player (Romany Malco) and his estranged wife. The ex-wife of Malco's character starts dating the star of another team, which sends Malco into a tailspin. The owner of the team (Jessica Alba) and the Coach (Verne Troyer) hire Mike Myers' character to fix the problem."
On a side note, Romany Malco's past credits include The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Weeds, while Verne Troyer is known for playing Mini-Me in the Austin Powers movies.
But besides the brief synopsis, most of the movie's details are still being kept secret. Nonetheless, it's quite apparent from the Internet buzz that fans are excited to see Myers back in action. By casting Alba, Troyer and Malco with Myers in the sexy comedy, it appears that Hollywood is working hard to make The Love Guru a tremendous success.
