One day after Brett Ratner resigned from producing the 2012 Academy Awards (due to the backlash surrounding his homophobic remarks), intended Oscars host Eddie Murphy has pulled out of his involvement with the Academy Awards. Murphy was named host after Ratner was brought on to produce the show and the men are close friends. It would seem that either Eddie no longer wanted to host the show (unlikely, IMHO) or the Academy didn’t want him to host now that they are rid of Ratner (likely). In either event, Eddie is out … click below to read all the deets about the end of Murphy‘s non-existent Oscars hosting career.

Wow … what started out as a silly rumor turned out to be … reality. The Motion Picture Academy announced today that comedian/actor/Academy Award nominee Eddie Murphy has been chosen as the host of the 84th annual Academy Awards next year. To be honest, I didn’t place one bit of credence to the rumors that Murphy might get the hosting gig … so I’m a bit surprised. But, now that I know that Brett Ratner is directing the show … it makes sense. To bet honest, I’m not even really concerned with the idea of Eddie as the host … I’m much more concerned that Ratner will be directing. Yikes!!

Faking Breaking News! The Sun newspaper is reporting that Eddie Murphy has signed on to play The Riddler in the new Batman sequel which they claim is titled Gotham. Despite the fact that no other news outlet has any of this information, The Sun goes on to further claim that Shia LaBeouf has been cast as Robin and Rachel Weiz has signed on as Catwoman. Umm … yeah:

FUNNYMAN EDDIE MURPHY will play The Riddler in the next Batman movie, The Sun can reveal. The Beverly Hills Cop star, 47, has been signed up by British director CHRISTOPHER NOLAN to reprise the role played by JIM CARREY in 1995’s Batman Forever. The surprise move follows speculation linking Pirates of the Caribbean star JOHNNY DEPP to the part. The film, set for a 2010 release, is being developed under the working title Gotham. Execs have also signed up rising Transformers star SHIA LABEOUF, 22, to play Robin. CHRISTIAN BALE will return as Bruce Wayne, while MICHAEL CAINE will again play Bruce’s assistant Alfred. Meanwhile, Brit RACHEL WEISZ is said to be up for the Catwoman role. Insiders also revealed to The Sun the flick will end on a cliffhanger over whether Batman survives a blast at Wayne Towers.

While I don’t really believe a single word of this report, I figured it’d be prudent to pass along the information cuz, I guess you never really know. Click HERE to read the full story at The Sun‘s official website. So … do any of y’all think that there could be any bit of truth to any of this?
