Kendrick was slated to star in Braff's new Kickstarter-funded project "Wish I Was Here" alongside Kate Hudson, Mandy Patinkin, Jim Parsons and Donald Faison, but had to pull out due to other filming commitments, reported Deadline.
The 'Scrubs' funnyman has now revealed Kendrick's friend Greene has been brought in as a replacement.
"Well, since you're having your first shot as being (a) movie producer, it's time you experience something that happens a lot: Scheduling conflicts. We've tried our hardest, but we've been unable to figure out the lovely Anna Kendrick's scheduling conflicts with another movie she's doing," Braff posted online.
Braff used crowd-funding website Kickstarter.Com to raise USD 3.1 million in donations to make the film, which is a sequel to his 2004 movie "Garden State".
