Friends to hit studio
FILMING of the Friends reunion is expected to start again next month.
The show – bringing Matt Leblanc, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer back together – will be a mix of interviews and sketches.
But its traditional live audience will be ditched and the cast will have to follow strict Covid-19 rules.
A source said: “Everyone is hoping filming can resume next month.
“It’s full steam ahead but there are strict guidelines and that includes no live audiences. That’s a blow because bosses were desperate to create an authentic atmosphere.
“The cast will be tested for Covid-19 and asked to quarantine after tests.”
The HBO Max special will be filmed at the comedy hit’s original Burbank studio in California.
