This isn't the first time Aniston has hinted that a Friends reunion could happen. Last February, while once again appearing on the Ellen Show, said "anything is a possibility, Ellen. Anything, right? I mean, George Clooney got married."
In terms of other cast members' thoughts on the reunion, most just don't see it happening. Schwimmer had his doubts. Generally, the girls seem more open than the boys, but everyone has trouble imagining it.
Lisa Kudrow, who played Phoebe, has gone both ways. In 2017, she said she was open to it although she didn't envision it becoming a reality.
"I don't see it happening. It would be fun, but what would it be about? Think about it." Kudrow said, via E!. "The thing we liked best about the show was that they were 20-somethings and they were their own family. Now, they all have families, so what are we going to watch?"
Last year, she elaborated saying the reboot was unlikely. "They're rebooting everything," Kudrow said during an appearance on Conan. "I don't know how that works with Friends, though. That was about people in their twenties, thirties. The show isn't about people in their forties, fifties. And if we have the same problems, that's just sad."
Matt LeBlanc, who played the lovable Joey Tribbiani, said no to the possibility. "Like, 'Old Friends'? Personally, I don't think so. I've talked to the writers about it," the actor said on the Steve show in 2018. "That show was about a very finite period in your life, between 20 and 30, when you’re out of school but your life hadn’t really started yet and your friends are your family, and you’re kind of finding your way. When that period is over, it's over."
Courtney Cox, or Monica Gellar, said she's interested but doesn't know how the plot would go. "People ask us all the time, Will we ever do a remake?' That was a story about these group of people that are friends in their 30s who are finding themselves. I don’t know if there’s a way to redo it. I just don’t see it happening," she said last year, via People. "Even though I would do anything to be in a room with all of those people acting and having a great time. But I don’t see it happening."
Matthew Perry, who played Chandler, is very against the idea of a reboot. “I have this recurring nightmare, I’m not kidding about this. When I’m asleep, I have this nightmare that we do Friends again and nobody cares,” Perry said in 2017. “We do a whole series, we come back, and nobody cares about it. So if anybody asks me, I’m gonna say no. The thing is: we ended on such a high. We can’t beat it. Why would we go and do it again?”
