Here's something U might not know…

Director Brett Ratner was a good friend to the late King of Pop.

And now, because he wants to show "the real" Michael Jackson, a biopic may be in the works.

He's getting help from Frank Cascio, one of Jackson's oldest friends and manager.

Miami Beach was home to the super sophisticated Art Basel event Wednesday night.

Once there, fabulous movie stars all basked in art and their own luxuriousness.

And Val Kilmer! Oh! Divine!!!

Then there was Brett Ratner. Oh hey! Glad to see you out and about after your Oscar chaos!

Peruse their photos below!!!

Brett Ratner might have offended a bunch of people with his gay slur, but Jane Lynch isn't one of them.

In fact, she actually sympathizes for the guy.

Thanks for the thoughtful words, Brett.

For the first time since exiting the Oscars, Brett Ratner sent out some tweets today, which are as follows:

G-d Bless Heavy D! He was a great man and one of my closest friends. I miss him!

He then followed up with a plug, tweeting:

Brett Ratner has found himself swirling around in such a shit storm right now, it's unbelievable.

Not only is he gonna have to make things right with the LGBT community and the Academy (that is, if he ever wants to be recognized for his Scorsese-like work), but he's also gonna have to make 'em right with Olivia Munn.

After she wrote about dating a nameless Hollywood big-wig who likes masturbating with shrimp, he took it upon himself to claim the story was in fact about him (because surely he's the only Hollywood big-wig she's ever dated…lol). But then he argued her exaggeration was because he "banged her but forgot her."

In the days following his less than classy comments, Olivia

And if it doesn't work out with Brian, there are still a few other executive producers on Tower Heist that might be interested! Ha!

Last we heard about Academy President Tom Sherak's search for a replacement Oscar producer, Tower Heist's Brian Grazer was the frontrunner for the job.

Sure enough, Sherak has confirmed that Grazer WILL step in as Brett Ratner's replacement. Here's what the Academy Prez had to say about it:

Why does the Academy feel the need to ONLY choose people from Tower Heist to produce and host the show???

Now that Tower Heist director Brett Ratner and Tower Heist producer/star Eddie Murphy have resigned from the Oscars, Academy president Tom Sherak is interested in getting TOWER HEIST producer Brian Grazer to take over for Brett.

No word yet on who will take over for Eddie, but there are plenty of other Tower Heist actors who would probably be up for the job! Maybe they can ask Ben Stiller or Matthew Broderick! OR maybe Alan Alda is game!

What do U think? Should Brian Grazer take over as Oscar producer? Or would U prefer someone NOT associated with Tower Heist???
