Press Release

ADVISORY/Premiere for `Austin Powers in Goldmember,' Monday, July 22nd, 2002

WHAT:    He's back, baby! It's been three years since Austin Powers,
         that swinging international man of mystery, has had to face
         his arch enemy, Dr. Evil. But after Dr. Evil and his
         accomplice Mini-Me escape from a maximum-security prison,
         Austin is called to action once more in this third
         installment of the highly successful "Austin Powers" trilogy.
         Teaming up with the mysterious yet peculiar Goldmember, Dr.
         Evil hatches a time-traveling scheme to take over the world,
         one that involves the kidnapping of Nigel Powers, Austin's
         beloved father and England's most renowned spy. As he chases
         the villains through time, Austin visits 1975 and joins
         forces with his old flame, Foxxy Cleopatra, a streetwise but
         stylish detective. Together, Austin and Foxxy must find a way
         to save Nigel and stop Dr. Evil and Goldmember from their
         mischievous mayhem.

         Mike Myers once again takes on multiple roles, portraying
         Austin Powers, Dr. Evil and Fat Bastard, as well as

         Powers and singing sensation Beyonce Knowles (of the
         multi-platinum group Destiny's Child) as Foxxy Cleopatra.
