"JASON
LEE"
The NEW Fletch? (9/20/02)
Jason Lee was a guest on Carson Daily's
NBC late night talk show Last Call on Sept 20th. To my surprise,
Carson brought up Fletch and they talked about it for quite
awhile. We've heard Kevin talk about it, but this is the first
time we've heard Jason Lee talk in depth about the project.
(Sorry it's taken me almost a week to
type this up but i've been super busy.)
Carson: Are you
doing the Fletch movies? Where are we with that? Jason: Well, yeah. Part of why I'm doing all this publicity is so I can get a certain studio to recognize that I could very well carry a film Carson: (talking to
Audience) You all remember the Fletch series?... with
Chevy Chase, which were awesome. (audience cheers) And
Kevin Smith is gonna direct it and you are gonna be in
it? Would you play Chevy Chase, are you gonna
play Fletch?
Carson: That's a
shame that that's their checklist. would the movie Fletch
be a big studio film? Carson: Is it like
a Scooby Doo type of thing? Carson: And you are
a big Fletch fan. I was a huge Fletch fan in College.
Carson: He's the
best.
Carson: Yeah, and
who else besides you could play Fletch? Carson: Have you
spoken to Chevy Chase at all? Carson: Is that
something you'd like to do? Carson: Hahah,
yeah, but Chevy's still funny. |

Then as Carson was signign off to the cameras, he said his little speel about Stealing Harvard, and then said "And...Look for Fletch?" looking back at Jason. Clapping, Lee nodded in agreement.
