He’s no superman.
Zach Braff, 49, has revealed what’s holding up a possible “Scrubs” reboot.
“Scrubs’ is a Disney show. [Creator] Bill [Lawrence] has a Warner Bros. deal. Once those two companies figure that out, I think the people will get what they want. I think it’s gonna happen,” Braff told ET in a recent interview.
“Scrubs” originally aired on NBC and later ABC from 2001-2010. The show followed the lives of Sacred Heart Hospital employees, including Dr. John Michael “J.D.” Dorian (Braff), intern-turned-physician Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke), who eventually marries J.D.; surgeon Christopher Turk (Donald Faison), aka J.D.’s best friend; head nurse Carla (Judy Reyes), who eventually marries Turk; Janitor (Neil Flynn), the custodian; and chief of medicine Perry Cox (John C. McGinley), among others.
Dave Franco joined the cast in the ninth and final season.
“It would be so much fun [with] all my favorite people,” Braff told the outlet about a possible reboot.
“We all still hang out,” he said. “A lot of people who were on long shows say that, but it’s true.”
Braff added, “I was just on vacation with Sarah Chalke… I’m going to the beach with Bill next weekend. We’re all friends.”
Braff also appears in Lawrence’s Apple TV+ show “Bad Monkey,” now streaming.
“He’s just a brilliant story teller. I don’t know anyone quite like him. He also manages to make like five shows at a time and he’s the nicest person,” Braff shared about Lawrence.
“I’m just very blessed to have my wagon hitched to him.”
Talking to The Post about “Bad Monkey,” which stars Vince Vaughn, Lawrence said that he likes casting unlikely leading men like Vaughn and Braff.
Lawrence said grew up watching shows like “Falcon Crest” or “Dallas,” where “everybody and every family looked as perfect as if they were chiseled out of a rock.”
Lawrence added, “I always loved the world of the everyman or the everywoman. And, I think if people can look at characters and say, ‘that could be me,’ it makes it easier for me to have the audience step into their shoes and empathize and get invested.”
Lawrence, who also co-created “Ted Lasso,” told The Post there’s a possibility that show can continue.
“That’s up to Jason Sudeikis,” he said.
“Because, by the way, he’s not just Ted Lasso himself and the writer co-creator — but he’s the one that would have to uproot his entire life and family, you know? As a fan, of course, I’d love to see it again,” Lawrence stated.
“But whatever [Sudeikis] ends up doing, I’m totally down with. And I get it.”
