He will likely play Fletch in the prequel that's been in production forever, Fletch Won. Go here (http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/upcoming/;_ylt=AuXa6yHeH88LtwBObt9NrwBfVXcA) to check it out.

I may be really wacked in the head, but wasn't Kevin Smith working on this at one point?

Yeah, after awhile he just dumped the project 'cause it was going NOWHERE.

So is Braff writing it? directing it? or just staring in it? Or is he pulling a Garden State and doing all of the above?

According to Yahoo Movies, he is at least starring in it, that's all the info they have.

Hmm, what would you think if he did write or direct it?

I know that Smith wanted Jason Lee to play Fletch, which would have worked but this sounds more promising. Speaking of Kevin Smith has anyone seen Clerks 2 yet?If so how was it

So far, it's almost definite that Braff will play Fletch, while Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence is officially directing.

I remember reading something on Kevin Smith's site about how he called Zach Braff to see if he was interested in playing Fletch. So... at least one thing is staying constant now.

At one point Chris Rock was asking Kevin Smith if he could play Fletch

That rocks. Hard. Bill Lawrence + Zach Braff = Comedy gold. They need to work Donald Faison in to it...is it just me or should Braff and Faison have starred in like 30 buddy comedies in movies together by now? Does anyone have better chemistry than them? I don't think so.

Zach Braff on his site talking about Bill directing:

"I know the obvious question that follows, and the answer is: I don't know yet. There are many things up in the air. Most important to me is directing my adaptation of "Open Hearts," which I had planned to shoot next summer. Plus what would my Sims do if I left them for too long. I know what they'd do, they'd all bang Randy.

We'll see what happens. But for now, I am very happy for Bill, cause he is the perfect man for the job. Not only is he one of the funniest people I've ever met, but he is a die-hard Fletch fan."

Id rather see Jason Lee playing Fletch than Zach Braff
