It seems Mike Myers has finally moved on from the Dieter debacle and got his teeth into a new project according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The Austin Powers star's new vehicle is apparently based on a comic book written by fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi called The Adventures of Sandee the Supermodel. "Sandee" follows the adventures of a 5ft 9in blonde who is discovered by a designer named Yvesaac, a character based on Mizrahi. It is thought Myers will play Yvesaac.

It's not been an easy year for Myers. He was sued by Universal pictures for $30m for walking away from the "Dieter" project (because he felt the scripts weren't up to scratch) and then sued by co-producers Imagine Entertainment for breach of contract. Myers then turned round and counter-sued for $20m. The affair was eventually settled out of court with the help of Steven Spielberg, who stepped in to mediate.

It is not known when production will start on the project.
