When we hear the word ‘Sitcom’, the television series Friends is the first to pop up to our attention. The show has become a pop culture icon over the decade, just like Game of Thrones. It manages to still make us laugh even after several rewatches. Well, good news has finally arrived for the fans of the popular sitcom. HBO has set Thursday, May 27 for the long-awaited Friends: The Reunion special on HBO Max. What’s even better? Game of Thrones star Kit Harington will have a cameo in it!
The date also happens to be the one-year anniversary of the WarnerMedia streaming platform’s launch. The show was originally set to be one of the launch specials for HBO Max’s launch last year but the shooting was delayed by the pandemic.
The special features Friends stars Jennifer Aniston (Rachel Green), Courteney Cox (Monica Geller), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe), Matt LeBlanc (Joey Tribbiani), Matthew Perry (Chandler Bing), and David Schwimmer (Ross) who return to the comedy’s original soundstage, Stage 24, on the Warner Bros. Studio lot in Burbank for a real-life unscripted celebration of the beloved show.
A slew of A-list celebrity guests will appear on the special including David Beckham, Justin Bieber, BTS, James Corden, Cindy Crawford, Cara Delevingne, Lady Gaga, Kit Harington and many more. Are you excited about Friends: The Reunion? Talk to us in the comments below!
