Zach Braff has reached his $3
million fundraising goal for "Wish I Was Here" -- the semi-follow-up
to his 2004 hit, "Garden State."
The actor - whose Kickstarter
campaign surpassed its goal by $105K on Friday - Tweeted his gratitude to
supporters.
"Thank you, thank you,
thank you. I won't let you down!" the former "Scrubs" star
Tweeted on Friday. "Lets do this."
In addition to the millions
donated by fans, Zach will also be backing the project with his own money,
while Worldview Entertainment will provide gap financing.
On Thursday, Zach revealed an
all-star cast for the upcoming movie, including Kate Hudson, "Big Bang
Theory's" Jim Parsons, Anna Kendrick, "Homeland" star Mandy
Patinkin, Josh Gad, and longtime BFF/former "Scrubs" co-star Donald
Faison.
"Wish I Was Here"
will center around the life of Aidan Bloom (played by Zach) - a 35-year-old
struggling actor and father forced to home school his two kids when his ailing
dad can no longer afford to pay the boys' private school tuition.
The film is slated for release
in September 2014. (Source)
