But considering it would be hard for Hopper to go undercover with that mustache, and since Chevy Chase’s Irwin Fletcher was a reporter and not a cop, the Fletch angle probably lies in the introduction of the Hawkins Post journalist Bruce, set to be played by Jake Busey.
Or maybe his new romance could have some of those farcical elements going for it.
Not much is known about Bruce just yet, but he’s said to have loose morals and a twisted sense of humor, so perhaps Busey will be an amiable beach junkie at some point.
The theory-avoiding Duffer brothers bringing Fletch into the mix hopefully means we’ll get to see David Harbour’s Sheriff Hopper getting a new case that involves him dressing up and pretending to be a bunch of different people to make progress.
