When we had ideas that earned there way in [Austin Powers], it began to get okay. The hook for me was 'Mini-Me. ' We only auditioned one guy - Verne Troyer - and at the time I said, 'we have to get this guy, get him life insurance, whatever he needs' because there was no other way or actor to do it. It was amazing to me just to talk to him. . . he was Mini-Me.
