The Oscars has quickly filled one of two gaping holes in its telecast: Big-time producer Brian Grazer will produce the show, reports TMZ. He takes over for Brett Ratner, who stepped down after uttering a gay slur. Still no word on who will host following Eddie Murphy's decision to walk away. The LA Times notes the small world of Hollywood: Oscar-winner Grazer, who produced Apollo 13 and A Beautiful Mind, also produced Ratner's new movie, Tower Heist. Murphy is one of the stars. Grazer also will probably have a film in the running for an Oscar—he produced Clint Eastwood's J. Edgar. (More Oscars stories.)
