Actor Mike Myers might have been born before audiences met the murderous Michael Myers in the original 1978 Halloween, but when the actor gained popularity in the ’90s, audiences couldn’t help but make reference to the ominous name he shared with the killer. While the Halloween film series itself doesn’t reference the actor, one fan recently pointed out an unexpected and hilarious connection between the slasher villain and the comedic actor, noting that Michael McDonald was not only killed on-screen in Halloween Kills by Michael Myers, but also played a character that got killed by Austin Powers in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, with Powers having been played by Mike Myers.
