Myers maakt werk van een documentaire genaamd Supermensch. Het gaat over Shep Gordon, de manager van sterren als Blondie, Alice Cooper, Luther Vandross en vele anderen. Myers zegt er het volgende over:
I met Shep Gordon in 1991 on the set of Waynes World. I thought he was a perfect combination of Brian Epstein, Marshall McLuhan and Mr Magoo. Ive been trying to get Shep to agree to let me make a movie about him for 10 years. Last year he finally he said yes. I loved him like a brother before we started making this film and now having sifted through his life and his legacy, I love him even more.
Bob DeBitetto, de grote man bij productiemaatschappij A&Es IndieFilms, liet zich ook uit over het project:
We are excited by the passion Mike Myers has brought to this project. Shep Gordon is known throughout Hollywood as the nicest guy to know and the epitome of friendship in an industry devoid of genuine friends but to hear Mike say it, hes a Supermensch.
