Mike Myers Joins Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards”

Not a headline anyone expected, but Mike Myers has joined the cast of Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming crazy World War II action film Inglorious Bastards, playing British General Ed Fenech, a military mastermind who helps to hatch a plot for some Nazi-stomping. Joining a Tarantino movie with Brad Pitt might be the way to go for Myers, in need of a little help after the drubbing of The Love Guru. If he can muster up some respectability again, like he did in his dramatic turn in 54, he could right his own ship. This would be a good thing, because the man is talented. He just needs to rein it in a bit. Big ensemble pictures help check the ego.
