Dr. Evil and his Evil clan return for General Motors Super Bowl ad teaser

The Super Bowl is nearly upon us and as we’ve come to expect, it’s not just about the game itself but the commercials as well. Companies typically go all out for these Super Bowl commercials and this year’s crop is no exception. General Motors has released several teasers for their Super Bowl commercial that features the return of Mike Myers as Dr Evil as well as the rest of the Evil clan.

The Dr. Evil Super Bowl teasers also feature Rob Lowe as Number Two, Seth Green as Scott Evil, and Mindy Sterling as Frau Farbissina. “Dr. EV-il is back… for good,” reads the commercial. As for what Dr. Evil will be shilling this time around, the slogan provides a clue, with “EV” likely referring to some sort of electric vehicle announcement. I suppose we’ll find out soon.

It’s been twenty years (what?!) since the release of the last Austin Powers movie but there have been frequent rumblings of a fourth installment. Mike Myers has said that he “would love to do another” Austin Powers movie, but director Jay Roach said they wouldn’t go ahead with it unless they got it right.

We have talked about [making a fourth movie] for 15 years. We have also always said we don’t want to do it unless we came up with something that lived up to the concepts in our mind. Until Mike feels like he has a concept that earns a fourth, it won’t happen. But if it did, we have all agreed that we would be delighted to get back into it.

Super Bowl LVI will take place on February 13th with the Los Angeles Rams facing the Cincinnati Bengals. Are you ready to see Dr. Evil return for the Super Bowl? What about his son, who clearly is still being verbally bullied by his father.
