Brett Ratner to direct Hercules?

Variety is reporting that Brett Ratner is going to direct a Hercules movie? How does this guy keep getting directing jobs? I mean, he ruined Terminator: Salvation and X-MEN: The Last Stand so can't we get a break? If they want to make a good Hercules movie, they need to bring back Kevin Sorbo. I bet he has plenty of time on his hands. If you need a reminder of his acting skills, watch this video.

Kevin Sorbo never made me want to drop to my knees. Of course, I loved watching Hercules and Xena (for very different reasons). Sorbo gave such great cheese on that show and I have huge respect for his ability to never emote in any scene.
