Zach Braff Confirmed for Scrubs Reboot at ABC

Zach Braff has officially signed on to reprise his role as Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian in the Scrubs reboot in development at ABC, marking him as the first original cast member confirmed to return. The project is described as both a revival and a reboot, with original creator Bill Lawrence involved as executive producer but not showrunner due to other commitments. Braff's return was secured after negotiations over salary and filming location, and his involvement may encourage other original cast members to join. The original Scrubs series, which ran from 2001 to 2010, was acclaimed for its blend of humor and emotional storytelling. No additional casting or premiere date has been announced yet. The reboot is part of a wider trend of 2000s TV series revivals in 2024.
