Myers To Take Indian Guru From The Stage To The Big Screen

Funnyman Mike Myers is set to turn an Indian guru character he has been trying out on the New York comedy circuit into his latest movie project.

The Austin Powers star has been performing as spiritual leader Pitka at Big Apple comedy clubs, wearing a fake nose, beard and a white robe.

And now he has perfected the role, Myers will turn Pitka into his next movie project, bringing Austin Powers In Goldmember's second unit director Marco Schnabel on board to direct.

In the planned film, Myers' character will attempt to solve a couple's intimacy problems by using ancient wisdom.
