ARTS & CULTURE & ENTERTAINMENT | Friends Reunion Confirmed At HBO Max: ‘It’s Happening’

The one where it’s all happening!

A ‘Friends’ reunion starring Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Parry, David Schwimmer and Matt LeBlank is official happening, HBO Max confirmed Friday.

‘The one where they got back together’, HBO Max posted in an Instagram Story. ‘The Friends cast set to reunite for exclusive HBO Max special #FriendsReunion #HBOMax’.

The entire cast will return to the comedy’s original soundstage, Stage 24, on the Warner Bros. studio lot in Burbank, California, for a celebration of the series. The unscripted cast reunion special, along with all 236 episodes of the series, will be available to subscribers at the launch of HBO Max in May 2020.

Guess you could call this the one where they all got back together – we are reuniting with David, Jennifer, Courtney, Matt, Lisa and Matthew for an HBO Max special that will be programmed alongside the entire Friends library’, Kevin Reilly chief content officer, HBO Max and president, TBS, TNT, and truTV, said in a statement’.

I became aware of Friends when it was in the very early stage of development and then had the opportunity to work on the series many years later and have delighted in seeing it catch on with viewers generation after generation. It taps into an era when friends – and audiences – gathered together in real time and we think this reunion special will capture the spirit, uniting original and new fans’, he continued.

‘Like a reboot? No,’’ Aniston said during on October appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. ‘We could love for there to be something, but we don’t know what that something is. So we’re just trying. We’re working something’.

Friends aired for 10 seasons before its series finale in 2004. Since then, the actors have gone on to act and direct in other projects, though the show that made them household names has continued to hold a special place, perhaps most notably for Aniston.
