Jennifer Aniston hints Friends won't return for another reunion episode

Jennifer Aniston has revealed she believes Friends is firmly in the past just one year after the cast reunited for a special one-off episode.

The Hollywood star who recently appeared in Murder Mystery 2 alongside pal Adam Sandler opened up to television host Jonathan Ross on the future of the hit sitcom.

Friends aired between 1994 to 2004, entertaining millions across the globe as well as a live studio audience who flocked to Stage 24 at the Warner Brothers Studios in Burbank, California.

However, the cast including Jennifer, Lisa Kurdrow, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and Matthew Perry reunited in 2021 to reflect on the series from Stage 24, now known as The Friends Stage.

But while many friends of the franchise had hoped that the cast would be open to filming a whole new reunion, Jennifer believes this won't be happening.

During an appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show, the 54-year-old said: "I don't think so, I think that was it, I think that was the swansong but you do never know."

However, she went on to explain that the cast are in regular contact with one another due to the bond they created when they were filming the series and they were texting just last week.

"Everybody stays in touch, we'll never shake each other, family forever," she said.

But while millions remember almost every aspect of the sitcom, Jennifer, however, doesn't as she clarified: "I do, once in a while [watch Friends], I'll stand there and go, 'Huh, I don't remember that.'"

The revelation comes just days after Jennifer joked she can't "escape" her character, Rachel Green, who she says is one of her "babies".

She told Stellar Magazine: "I feel like I have done them all; wrap them up and put them in a neat pile and put them away."

Jennifer and Adam joined the show via video link from Paris as they discussed Murder Mystery 2 including the time Jennifer accidentally kicked him, quite hard in the ribs.

"It's in the movie, I'm asleep and she says, 'You've got to wake up,' I thought she'd gently give me a tap," he said before adding: "Instead, I get an Anistan foot come powerfully in, she's got strong feet."

But Jennifer doesn't know if there will be a third film in the series, adding it's "going to be up to the audience," while Sandler said they would definitely not be able to solve a real murder.
