Spielberg Films Cameo Roles For Austin Powers

Austin Powers in Goldmember
Steven Spielberg, Tom Cruise and Gwyneth Paltrow will make guest appearances in "Austin Powers In Goldmember". Spielberg says Mike Myers brought a scene over for him to read, asking if he'd be interested.

"I read it and thought it was hysterical," Spielberg said in interviews for his upcoming sci-fi collaboration with Tom Cruise, Minority Report. "I normally wouldn't say yes, but Mike's a very close friend of mine, and the scene was really funny.

"He also had written a part for Gwyneth Paltrow, who's like one of my kids. I knew Gwynnie before she was born. "I sent the pages to Tom and Gwynnie and they both agreed to do it." Cruise said it was only a few hours of shooting that turned out to be "a blast".

"Austin Powers In Goldmember" opens on July 26.
