Mike Myers vs The Robots

It's reported that a new robot movie is in the works, to star Mike Myers.

The new Paramount film is a comedy called "How To Survive a Robot Uprising", based on the book of the same title written by Daniel H. Wilson. The original book is subtitled: "Tips on Defending Yourself Against the Coming Rebellion".

Although the book is light-hearted, Wilson knows his stuff - he's a doctoral candidate at the Robotics Institute of Carnegie Mellon University.

Thomas Lennon and Ben Garant are writing the script for the film in which Myers will play a technician charged with monitoring the rise of the robots and keeping them under control.
