The Cast of Friends To Return in Big Screen Movie Adaptation

After seeing the success of Sex and the City with its silver screen endeavor, Jennifer Aniston finally gave the go signal to Warner Brothers for the production of Friends the Movie, which will be out 18 months from now.

Some of you may ask, why is Jennifer Aniston the one to follow in this great, possible million-dollar idea? Why is she the queen bee whilst the rest of the cast are equally talented and their characters are as important as hers. That’s because she has refused to do the movie before, and feeling jealous of Sarah Jessica Parker with what happened in Sex and the City, she changed her mind decided to go on with the movie project. The award-winning comedy series created by Martha Kauffman and David Crane about the lives of six Manhattan adults debuted on September 22, 2004, and since then the show has become a weekly prime time favorite all over the world.You probably still know all the cast members’ names and personalities and I bet you and your friends can watch a Friends marathon anytime. Chandler, Joey, Ross, Phoebe, Rachel and Monica’s indifferent humorous lifestyles became such a television staple that It was almost heartbreaking to watch the series finale.

All six of the cast members have agreed to play their respective roles accordingly, and if the script is done right, this might be one of the funniest movies ever made. I can’t believe it only took a simple high school-like jealousy to push the project through. Jennifer Aniston shouldn’t be jealous of SJP for anything, she still has a blossoming career, continuous blockbuster hits and John Mayer as a bot toy. It’s definitely not the looks, SJP’s face is like an Egyptian carving on the side of an ancient cave’s wall while Aniston has one of the most sought-after bodies in Hollywood.

If Sex and the City made it super big in the blockbuster, there’s no doubt that Friends will do better. It’s not only the funniest series ever produced, it also had a TV running period long enough for a teenager to tell her daughter about it 8 years later, when she graduates from college and did everything else. I can imagine all the twenty-something or thirty-something year-old fans getting all excited to see the movie, and we’re definitely thrilled to witness Central Perk’s famous couch gang in the big screen.
