The first official Friends Reunion teaser has arrived and could I BE more excited? No, the answer is no.
The long-awaited reunion is teased in the clip as The One Where They Got Back Together and features your six fave friends (Courtney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt Le Blanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer) strutting through a lane of studios as the iconique theme song plays in the background.
The teaser also revealed that the show will be dropping on HBO Max on May 27 and I have no idea what that means for us, considering we don’t get HBO Max here in Aus, but I’m sure there’s a bidding war currently going down between the local streamers and stations.
Anyway, catch the clip here:

The wild-ass twist is that the Friends reunion spesh will also feature a bunch of guests, including stars that once appeared on the show and random celebrity guests.
The list of guests includes: David Beckham, Justin Bieber, BTS, James Corden, Cindy Crawford, Cara Delevingne, Lady Gaga, Elliott Gould (who played Ross and Monica’s dad), Kit Harington, Larry Hankin (who played Mr Heckles), Mindy Kaling, Thomas Lennon (who played Joey’s hand twin), Christina Pickles (who played Ross and Monica’s mama), Tom Selleck (who played Richard), James Michael Tyler (who played Gunther), Maggie Wheeler (who played Janice), Reese Witherspoon (who played Rachel’s sister Jill) and Malala Yousafzai.
