EPISODE 31: Interview with Greg Mottola
The FletchCast crew sits down with Writer/Director/Executive Producer of the new movie "Confess, Fletch", Greg Mottola, to talk about how he and Jon Hamm got this project off the ground and across the finish line after 33 years of failed attempts. Mottola talks about the movie making process and the challenges of navigating through the world of Fletch - trying to make a movie that is their own, but still paying homage at times to the iconic Chevy Chase version from the 1980's. Greg discusses Jon Hamm's approach to the version of Irwin M. Fletcher that appears in the series of Gregory McDonald books...and gives us an exclusive as to what book might be next if a second film is greenlit. Confess, Fletch gearing up for a limited theatrical release and debut on Premium Video-on-Demand Sept. 16, 2022.
