More Details of Highly Anticipated "Friends" Reunion Revealed

A few weeks ago, HBO Max announced that the highly anticipated reunion episode of "Friends" was officially over. The trailer that appeared online yesterday reveals that Courteney Cox , Jennifer Aniston , Lisa Kudrow , Matt LeBlanc , Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer  will hit the screen together again on May 27. The episode will be called "The one where they get back together", by analogy with all other episodes that always start with "The one where". Matthew Perry, who plays Chandler Bing , made it clear on social media that they are looking forward to it: "We're back!"

The actors may be reunited, but they will not be portraying their beloved characters. Lisa Kudrow, the actress who plays Phoebe Buffay , told The Sunday Times that in the episode they would mainly look back on their experiences during and after the shooting of "Friends". HBO also announced that not only the actors of "the six", but also actors of other key characters are on the guest list. For example, the parents of Ross and Monica , as well as Mr. Heckles , Gunther "Central Perk", Janice and Richard are there. 

Moreover, a long laundry list of other celebrities has been invited. Among others, Justin Bieber , David Beckham , Mindy Kaling and Lady Gaga will join them. Their role in the episode is still unclear. 

The fans are eagerly looking forward to seeing Phoebe, Monica, Ross, Chandler, Joey and Rachel again. The reunion was first planned in March 2020, but due to the corona crisis, the recordings were always delayed.
