LOS ANGELES (AP) - The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced a rule change allowing a best picture Oscar winner to have more than three producers in rare circumstances.
Academy President Sid Ganis said the change was among a handful of refinements in the rules approved Tuesday for the 80th Academy Awards.
The Academy imposed a rule in 2000 that limited each nominated film to three credited producers who could claim statuettes. That led to bickering and lawsuits from people who felt they were denied Oscars for pictures that won.
