A fourth “Austin Powers” movie may secretly be in development and the first casting decision could have already leaked out. According to the Boston Globe there is a rumor that blonde bombshell model Gisele Bundchen is the likely candidate to assume the female lead in the untitled fourth “Powers” film. If the gossip turns out to be for real the 27-year-old Brazilian Bundchen will step into the Austin lady shoes that have been worn by Elizabeth Hurley, Heather Graham and Beyoncé Knowles.

Mike Myers and director Jay Roach are supposedly working on a plot for the new “Austin Powers” which would tell the story from the perspective of Dr. Evil (which will once again be played by Myers.) It has been six years since “Austin Powers in Goldfinger” was released and made $200 million dollars for its studio, New Line Cinema. Myers has kept a low profile since then and kept to only working on the last two “Shrek” movies. His next live action role is as “The Love Guru” which opens in theaters on June 20.
