"Fletch" Lives Again in Planned Warner Bros. Reboot!

Warner Bros. is investigating the possibility of bringing back "Fletch" to the big screen! According to the Hollywood Reporter, the studio has bought movie rights to the Gregory McDonald mystery novels.

There's no writer or director or star on board yet, but the studio wants this new "Fletch" to be a "reimagining" and not a remake of the popular "Fletch" films starring Chevy Chase (1985's "Fletch" and 1989's "Fletch Lives").

Once upon a time, Harvey Weinstein, through Miramax and then The Weinstein Company, wanted to launch a "Fletch" franchise with director Kevin Smith for McDonald's "Fletch Won." Everyone from Ben Affleck to Jason Lee to Joshua Jackson were attached to star but it was ultimately a failed attempt to bring back "Fletch."

Maybe this time Warner Bros. will succeed in revamping the franchise.
