: Can you imagine the upset throughout the fan ranks if Lee has to step aside to let Ben or Fredie Prinze Jr. into the role.
: Lee seems to be the easy casting here...
I don't know. I think I'd like to see Affleck take on the role. I love Lee to death, but to me, Ben seems more suited to be Fletch. Of course, I'm thinking mainly of the first Fletch movie, and have yet to read my newly bought used copy of FLETCH WON. Lets not forget that Affleck obviously has a bit more drawing power and celebrity status. Any hopes of turning FLETCH into a franchise as planned would be brighter with Ben in the role. (Not that Lee couldn't carry it) If Affleck couldn't do it for some reason, Lee would be my next choice hands down. Even though it may get me castrated on the board here, I'm throwing my dice in with Affleck. Though I would give my third nipple to see Lee in a Joker "BATMAN: YEAR ONE" role.
