Hello I’m here to talk to you about the creator and man behind these characters. Mike Myers. He is in my opinion a genius writer and an outstanding actor. To show he is extremely talented. Mr Myers has won many awards such as four American Comedy Awards for the Austin powers series and he has won seven MTV Movie Awards (Plus countless others). Mike has had huge success in the UK and American. Moreover, he is worth millions dollars. But he had to start somewhere.
Slide 2
Here is where he started. Mike was Born on May 25, 1963, in Toronto, Canada. Myers grew up in the town of Scarborough, outside of Toronto, with his parents and two brothers. His father, an Encyclopaedia Britannica salesman, introduced his children early to the Monty Python and James Bond movies that would inspire Myers’s weirdly brilliant comic style. Michael Myers began acting in commercials at the age of eight and appeared in ads for Datsun, Pepsi, Kmart, and Apple Jacks. After many years of commercials and school work, Mike auditioned for the Second City Comedy Troupe. He was accepted and Myers performed with the group in Toronto and Chicago. In 1989, producer Lorne Michaels hired him as an actor and writer for Saturday Night Live, His first feature length film. This was closely followed by these next two films.
