Jennifer Aniston Says A ‘Friends’ Reboot Is Possible

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Fairfield chapter.

Well if it hasn’t been your day, or your month, or even your YEAR, we have some hopeful news for any devoted Friends fans. According to Jennifer Aniston’s recent appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the actress believes in the possibility of a reboot of the beloved 90’s sitcom.

“Y’all should do a Friends reunion. I know people keep asking that,” said the talk-show host on the episode that aired February 2nd.

“Anything is possible, Ellen,” said Aniston. “Anything, right?”

Ellen isn’t the first to suggest the idea. With reboots like Fuller House and Will & Grace, rumors and speculation of other potential TV show reunions have audiences begging for more from their old favorites.

A fan-made Friends movie trailer posted to YouTube quickly rose to internet fame, even sparking conversation on Conan during an interview with Lisa Kudrow.

“I mean, something should be done,” said Kudrow, in reference to the viral video. “I don’t know what. They’re rebooting everything, but how does that work with Friends though? I mean, that was about people in their 20s, 30s. Well, the show isn’t about people in their 40s, 50s. And if we have the same problems, then that’s just sad. That’s not fun.” Nobody’s entirely sure how, but the potential for a Friends reunion is open for discussion. Here’s to hoping!
