Myers Vs The Robots

Mike Myers will star in How To Survive A Robot Uprising. The comedy is based on a manual written by Daniel H Wilson, a doctoral candidate at the Robotics Institute of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Myers will play a technical administrator who has the thankless job of sounding warnings against robotic threats and researching ways to keep them from taking over. (That should put the brakes on Schwarzenegger's plans to take the White House.)

Paramount bought the book last year and hired writing partners Thomas Lennon and Ben Garant to pen the script. Their credits include Herbie: Fully Loaded about a car with artificial consciousness - hey, wait a minute...
