• Kevin seemed to reveal (or at least mumble in passing) at the con that Jason Lee indeed IS Fletch in his upcoming “Fletch Won” film. This is fantastic news, and something we’d hoped and predicted since day one. Lee makes the perfect Fletch, and provides an absolutely perfect transition for Kevin away from the Askewniverse and into a new direction of films. Anyone who wasn’t first excited at the thought of Kev doing a Fletch flick should think twice now. We’ll have more on this exciting development as they get closer to pre-production, of course.

Lee himself stopped by the View Askew WWWBoard early this morning to check in, so you may be able to catch him there sometime this week if you’ve got some questions. You can also see his Almost Famous trailer in theaters, and some clips from the film (featuring Lee) on VH-1’s “Behind The Music: Peter Frampton”.

Again, keep in mind that the Lee casting is only rumor at this point, if it were finalized, Variety’d surely have reported something by now. But it seems like a really good bet. Anything else would be a letdown!
