Friends Reunion – years in the making
Rumours of a reunion began in November, after years of fans calling for it. In March, Matthew Perry tweeted that the Friends Reunion begins filming the following March. Fans went wild and the tweet was liked and retweeted over 100,000 times in just twenty four hours.
Other shows held a reunion via Zoom during the pandemic, but the Friends stars held off until they could film in person.
The announcement of a reunion date has excited fans. Some are criticizing the 18 celebrity guests such as James Cordon, Cindy Crawford and Kit Harington. This is due to stars like Cole Sprouse, who played Ross’s son Ben and twins Cali and Noelle Sheldon who played Emma Gellar Green being omitted from the guest list.
The Friends Reunion will be broadcast on HBO Max streaming service on May 27th.
