Ratner Moves to Paramount

Ratner Moves to Paramount

July 31, 2008 By Sam Sloan 2 Comments

Just as renowned, award-winnding director Steven Spielberg is looking to leave his haunts at Paramount Pictures the studio lands a new big fish for its line-up a star helmers. Brett Ratner, will be packing up his Rat Entertainment shingle and leaving the troubled New Line for new gigs with Paramount.

While very few director’s resumes will ever be as impressive as Spielberg’s, Ratner’s list of work is nothing to sneeze at. He can take credit for helming all three “Rush Hour” flicks, as well as “X-Men: The Last Stand,” “Red Dragon” and the Nicolas Cage film “Family Man.” He has also been a force to be reckoned with on television having produced and directed several episodes of the Fox hit series “Prison Break” and “Women’s Murder Club.”

Some of his future projects include “The Incredible Shrinking Man,” “Mr. S: My Life with Frank Sinatra,” “Beverly Hills Cop 4,” “Harbinger” and the upcoming new television crime drama “Blue Blood.”

    With Ratner helming the Harbinger film from the beggining not finishing upthe franchise. I think he could be the right director.
