Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow said they would love to create a new sitcom together in a recent interview with Variety [1, 2].
The potential partnership marks a significant prospect for the television industry, as the two actresses share one of the most successful comedic legacies in U.S. history. Their chemistry on the set of *Friends* helped define the multi-camera sitcom format for a generation of viewers.
Speaking on Variety's YouTube channel, the pair said they reminisced about their time filming the hit series [2]. They specifically discussed the moments when they broke character during production, a common occurrence during the show's high-energy filming schedule [1, 2].
The conversation served as a promotional look-back at their professional relationship, and their shared history in the industry [1]. While no specific project has been officially announced, both actresses said they have a strong desire to collaborate again on a new scripted comedy [1, 2].
Aniston and Kudrow said they reflected on the dynamics of the *Friends* set and how those experiences influenced their approach to comedy [1]. The interview highlighted a lasting bond between the co-stars that extends beyond their roles as Rachel Green and Phoebe Buffay [2].
Their willingness to return to the sitcom genre suggests a continued demand for character-driven comedy. The pair did not provide a timeline for a potential new project, but the expressed interest suggests a mutual openness to a creative reunion [1, 2].
