Austin Powers fans can get excited, as plans for a fourth movie have just been unveiled.
After a long 16 years, Mike Myers has revealed that another film is in the works, and it sounds groovy, baby.
So, while we all get excited about the return of Austin Powers, here's everything we know so far.
How do we know it's happening?

At the premiere of his latest project, Bohemian Rhapsody, Mike told Access Online that things were 'looking good', after years of hearsay.
Not only did he seemingly promise fans a fourth flick in the franchise, Mike confirmed that one of his classic characters will be making a comeback too.
"You're going to see Dr Evil soon, somewhere in the culture. The [fourth Austin Powers] movie... it's looking good," he said, later adding: "They take a long time to write, they always have."
Rumours began in March 2010 that another Austin Powers film could potentially happen, with director Jay Roach saying that Mike was working on ideas for it.

But things went quiet for a few years, and the late Verne Troyer expressed his desire to return as Mini-Me if the film would have him.
And in May of this year, Mike reiterated his interest in creating a fourth Austin Powers.
Is there a release date yet?
There is currently no release date for when this film will hit cinema screens, although fans will be hoping it will be soon as it has been almost two decades since the last.

However, Mike did explain that the movies take a long time to write, and they 'always have'.
He's also a pretty busy guy, previously saying: "You know, I've been very... I've had three kids in the last six years and that's sort of where my focus has been."
Who will it star?
Mike's seemingly confirmed his own return as Dr. Evil on the red carpet earlier this week. He didn't make it clear whether Austin would be returning too, but it seems highly likely.

As for the other characters? No one really knows yet.
Verne Troyer, who played Mini-Me in the franchise sadly won't be making a return, as the beloved actor passed away earlier this year.
Mike previously hinted that a new film would pay tribute to Verne in some way.

Previous stars such as Elizabeth Hurley, who portrayed Vanessa Kensignton in the franchise, haven't yet revealed whether they'll be making a return or cameo, Beyoncé included.
And who's going to be directing it?
Jay Roach is back to direct the film for the fourth time, with Mike continuing to write it and create the characters.
Mike said: "They take a long time to write, Jay's been crazy - he's doing a fantastic movie right now he's working on."
What will the storyline be?
Fans are bound to be expecting big things from the international man of mystery, although what Mike has in store for us remains to be seen.
The first three movies, Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery, Austine Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Austin Powers In Goldmember were all James Bond parodies.
It seems likely that Mike will continue this pattern for the next film.
