News 18The Friends’ reunion certainly brought back many memories and superfans together last week. Besides the leading cast of the show that comprised Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc, Lisa Kudrow, and David Schwimmer, the reunion also featured some other memorable characters like Maggie Wheeler, Reese Witherspoon, James Michael Tyler, Elliott Gould and Christina Pickles, and Larry Hankin. Paul played Phoebe’s husband in the show while the Sprouse twins played Ross Geller’s son Ben. Speaking to The Wrap, the special episode’s director Ben Winston said that the actors could not make it due to circumstances like Covid-19 restrictions and time constraints. Winston further said that the makers could not have adjusted too many cameos because there were “hundreds of amazing people” who were in Friends over the years, including Brad Pitt, and George Clooney.
