I'm a comedic actor, not to mix words, but it's something I think about. A comedic actor. I like to think that Christopher Guest, Phil Hartman, Peter Sellers and Alec Guinness are comedic actors. And Dan Aykroyd, too. Those are my heroes.
From Mike Myers
My dad sold encyclopedias and my mom worked in a factory office.
I love making comedy. I never stopped loving it. I will continue to love it and I can't believe that I get to do it.
Dad was in the British Army and my mom was in the Royal Air Force, so both of my parents believed in discipline.
Once I turned 35, I got the bonus of some wisdom and began to accept life on its own terms.
The interesting thing about life is, there is what you think is going to happen, and what actually happens.
When I graduated from high school, I got accepted to York University, Fine Arts film program.
I knew I wanted to be a father; I didn't know it was going to be this awesome or that my kid would come out so beautiful and lovely.
I can be described as many things, but no description of me is complete without saying 'Englishman.' My parents were from Liverpool and emigrated to Canada before I was born.
Dad loved movies, and I grew up with British comedy. My ultimate favourite is Peter Sellers.
