Mike Myers says he is "thrilled" to be working with Quentin Tarantino on new movie 'Inglorious B*****ds'.The 'Austin Powers' star - who plays Ed Fenech, a military mastermind who devises the plan to take on the Nazi soldiers in the war film - admits he was stunned when he was offered the chance to live out his childhood dream.He said: "I am so thrilled. I can't believe I got the call, to be honest with you. It's one of those unbelievable, magical calls that you get."I get to play a British general. I get to be in a World War II movie, which has been my goal since I think I was, like, six years old. And I get to play one of those brainiac British generals."Mike also revealed despite being in the movie industry for the past 16 years, he trusts the director's "vision" implicitly.He added: "Tarantino is amazing. He has such a complete vision of how he wants it to go. I feel like I am a tube of paint in his painting, and it is a very beautiful feeling."Mike stars alongside Brad Pitt and Diane Kruger in the upcoming film.
