    WASHINGTON: After the highly anticipated ‘Friends: The Reunion’ recently released, Hollywood star Jennifer Aniston, who played the role of Rachel Green in the iconic sitcom ‘Friends’ shared an old BTS video from the sets of the show.

    Aniston took to her Instagram handle and shared the BTS footage featuring her, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc. She captioned the post as, “#TBT Like WAY WAY BACK… Happy #FriendsReunion Day from the @entertainmenttonight archive.”

    In the video footage, Aniston could be seen talking in an interview about her experience of working on the sets of the mega-hit sitcom. But, every now and then, her co-stars would enter the frame in order to playfully interrupt the interview in question. The co-stars could also be seen sharing a hearty laugh as and when one prank or the other was pulled.

    Aniston as Rachel had become a pop culture phenomenon when the show was around. Several of her one-liners and her hairdo were amongst many of the things that the fans adopted over the years.

    ‘Friends’ originally aired for 10 seasons on NBC from 1994 to 2004. The beloved sitcom followed the story of six friends in their 20s and 30s who live in Manhattan, New York City.

    The reunion special episode, which is available to stream on Zee5 in India, brought back the beloved sitcom’s six main cast members, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer.

    The ‘Friends’ reunion special episode was all about living the aura of the famous sitcom and taking fans on an emotional joyride.

    The cast could be seen reliving the moments that they shared together on and off-screen. Some of the cast members even recreated their famous moments from the show that made them a viral hit in the late 1990s and the early 2000s.

    On the work front, currently, Aniston is co-front lining Apple TV+’s ‘The Morning Show’ alongside Reese Witherspoon, who played one of Aniston’s on-screen sisters on ‘Friends’.

    MUMBAI: The much-anticipated “Friends: The Reunion” will exclusively premiere on ZEE5, the streaming platform announced Sunday. While the special is scheduled to be released on the streamer HBO Max in the US on May 27, the date of its Indian debut is yet to be revealed.

    All the six original cast members of “Friends” — Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer are coming back for the long-awaited event.

    Manish Kalra, Chief Business Officer, ZEE5 India said, they are excited to bring the show on their platform for the Indian audience, where the sitcom enjoys massive popularity. “‘Friends’ is amongst the world’s most watched and loved sitcoms and it is a great opportunity for us to present their reunion, something that the world has been talking about, on ZEE5 for fans in India, who can enjoy it from the safety of their home,” Kalra said in a statement.

    Ben Winston directed the special and executive produced along with “Friends” executive producers Kevin Bright, Marta Kauffman, and David Crane. The special was delayed multiple times due to the production shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

    It was originally set to film in February 2020 but was only able to begin filming in April this year at the iconic comedy’s original soundstage, Stage 24, on the Warner Bros Studio lot in Burbank, California.

    It will also feature a variety of special guests including David Beckham, Justin Bieber, BTS, James Corden, Cindy Crawford, Cara Delevingne, Lady Gaga, Elliott Gould, Kit Harington, Larry Hankin, Mindy Kaling, Thomas Lennon, Christina Pickles, Tom Selleck, James Michael Tyler, Maggie Wheeler, Reese Witherspoon and Malala Yousafzai.

    “Friends: The Reunion” comes from Warner Bros Unscripted Television in association with Warner Horizon, Fulwell 73 Productions and Bright/Kauffman/Crane Productions. The show, which first aired in 1994, was a phenomenon during its decade-long run and later achieved a cult status through TV reruns and streamers.

  • Matthew Perry launches limited edition ‘Friends’ merchandise ahead of reunion special

    By ANI
    WASHINGTON: As ‘Friends: The Reunion’ special is just around the corner, the much-loved sitcom’s star Matthew Parry has released a line of limited-edition merchandise inspired by his iconic character Chandler Bing.

    The 51-year-old actor announced the news on Thursday via an Instagram post. He shared that the collection, including T-shirts, sweatshirts, and even items for babies and pets, will only be available for three weeks.

    The price of the merchandise range from USD 14.99 for a bandana that reads, “Could I be any more of a dog?” to USD 44.99 for the “Could I be more me?” hoodie. The designs mostly feature takes on Chandler’s signature catchphrase written in the classic ‘Friends’ font.

    Per Page Six, a few pieces nod to the character’s fondness for baths, while others are printed with the definition of sarcasm, which is Chandler’s preferred method of communication.

    Meanwhile, a baby onesie reads, “I’ll talk to you about it later,” while a particularly timely T-shirt asks, “Could I be any more vaccinated?”

    The interested ones will have to place their orders soon as the line has high-profile fans like David Beckham champing at the bit. “I need one,” the footballer commented on Perry’s post.

    The announcement about the merchandise comes on the same day as a new trailer for the highly anticipated ‘Friends’ reunion released, in which Perry can be seen – in a very un-Chandler Bing move. In the trailer, Perry is getting emotional and being comforted by Jennifer Aniston.

    As reported by Page Six, the reunion, which was taped in April, is set to premiere on HBO Max on May 29. Perry, Aniston and the rest of the gang including David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, and Lisa Kudrow, are all returning.

    David Beckham, Justin Bieber, and Reese Witherspoon are slated to guest star, with James Corden set to host.
