Director Brett Ratner says he has big plans for Paris Hilton.
TMZ spotted "Rush Hour" director Ratner outside of Mr. Chow last night, where he revealed his plans to work with the fresh-outta-jail heiress on, um, one of his next projects.
The only clues Brett would give were that it's not "X-Men 4" (please, keep this man away from that franchise!) and that it was "better than that." With "Rush Hour 3" already in post-production, the only things on his plate right now are an untitled crime caper with Chris Rock and Eddie Murphy, and the just announced biopic of Playboy grandpa Hugh Hefner.
Paris opposite Chris and Eddie? Or Paris as a dumb bunny? That was easy.

Jackie Chan couldn't resist laying a big, fat kiss on Brett Ratner last night.
As the "Rush Hour" star and the film's director posed for paparazzi outside kosher hotspot Prime Grill, Chan gave Ratner a birthday kiss. Brett celebrated his b-day dinner at the restaurant with his grandmother -- the one spotted shopping Melrose Ave. with Paris Hilton -- and the heiress herself, wearing her good bra for the occasion. Hilton's spring fling, Josh Henderson, was seen later in the evening ... leaving Chez Paris.
Also at the restaurant were Joe Francis, "Buffy" star Michelle Trachtenberg and fellow WB alum, James Van Der Beek.
TMZ also spotted Nicollette Sheridan heading to Mr. Chow, where one photographer confused her with that other blonde Chow-hound, Sharon Stone -- and Nicollette didn't sound flattered. Audrina from "The Hills" was caught at Hyde, though unlike fellow MTV reality star Jessica Smith, she opted for a passenger seat after a night of partying.

Either Courteney Cox has a secret crush on one of the waiters at Il Sole restaurant in West Hollywood, or she's really in love with their ravioli, or she just can't cook!
The super sexy mom was seen, once again, exiting the swanky joint without hubby David Arquette. This time, the "Dirt" star stopped to sign for some waiting fans.
Also out on the town: "Desperate Housewives" star Eva Longoria, Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx, "Rush Hour 3" director and ladies man Brett Ratner, "X-Men" babe Kelly Hu, and tatty Travis Barker.

Lindsay Lohan is no Jennifer Aniston -- and photogs couldn't be happier.
While Aniston worked overtime against the paparazzi last night, Lindsay Lohan was all smiles as TMZ's cameraman spotted her making an exit from Winston's. She even avoided hiding behind a jacket being held up to block her face, going right around her aloof friend before driving away. Thanks, hon!
Also out last night were Nick Lachey, who partied sans Vanessa Minnillo at Privilege, "X-Men" ruiner Brett Ratner, "Rock Star: Supernova" winner Lukas Rossi and trainwreck Mary Carey -- who told TMZ why she's scared of Britney Spears.
All this and more in today's mutant edition of Star Catcher.

It was a busy weekend in LA as our cameras were out on the town to catch all the action.
We were outside late-night food stop Jerry's Famous Deli when we ran into two former SNLers doing a little bit of munching. Adam Sandler and his funny pal Chris Rock left the restaurant in true comic style, telling jokes and making people laugh.
Next stop for TMZ was the always hopping club Hyde, a hotspot that attracts tons of celebs.
On hand over the weekend were Lindsay Lohan, Good Charlotte, former boy bander Kevin Richardson, "X Men" director Brett Ratner, and former Laker Rick Fox who explains his new profession.
All this and much more in this weekend version of Star Catcher...
