Zach Braff on the Short-List to Play the New Fletch?
by Scott Weinberg | March 01, 2005

Writer-director Kevin Smith dropped an interesting little tidbit onto his View Askew message board regarding his upcoming "Fletch Won": "Scrubs" and "Garden State" star Zach Braff is presently atop the list to play investigative reporter Irwin M. Fletcher. Obviously this is just pre-pre-production chit-chat, but the Braff fans should keep their fingers crossed; he'd be perfect in the role!

I love Zach Braff. Really. Garden State was just amazing. It's in my Top 10 Films. But sorry, Zach is not Fletch. I really stick to the opinion that Ryan Reynolds (of "Van Wilder" fame) should be Fletch. That might just be me though.

I agree Ryan Reynolds is a great suggestion, but do we really need another Fletch movie?

If Braff can bring the quirkyness of JD from Scrubs to Fletch, I think that would be great. He is a talented actor and I think he would fit in fine as Fletch.

[b]Reynolds is Perfect[/b]
I too am leaning towards the idea that Ryan Reynolds is the perfect feltch. As with halose7en love Braff but theres a certain resemblance in movement and comic timing of Chase in Reynolds that would be perfect for the character of Fletch.Whereas we know Braff could do it i think Reynolds would pull it off perfectly.
