ON THE LOT: Director/producer Brett Ratner ("Rush Hour 3," X-Men 3: The Last Stand) serves as a judge on the new moviemaking competition series ON THE LOT premiering Tuesday, May 22 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. ©2007 Fox Broadcasting Co. Cr: Mike Yarish/FOX Speaking to Empire Magazine, Joe Gatta, producer behind the upcoming reboot of Conan the Barbarian, revealed that Brett Ratner (Rush Hour) is no longer attached to the project.

Gatta said: "We’re currently in the process of hiring a director. For the past six months we were discussing the movie with Brett Ratner, and for more timing issues than anything else we had to part ways with Brett. We all wanted him to do it, believe me; just the timing didn’t work."

Production on the film begins August 24 in Bulgaria. A new director is being searched for.
