HBO Max explained in a statement, “Lastly, in order to avoid any misunderstanding about what this special is, we want to make it very clear that this is not a new, original episode of the series. The cast will be appearing as themselves, not as their beloved characters.”

And obviously people can’t keep calm, here are some reactions: 

The Friends reunion special has completed filming and the sitcom’s official Instagram account confirmed the news . 

The project was initially slated to film on March 23 and 24, 2020 in Burbank, but was “delayed until at least May,” due to the ongoing pandemic in the world. 

Friends is still and will be one of the most popular sitcoms of all time. The series ran for 10 seasons from 1994 to 2004 and depicted the daily lives and the problems of six friends in a comedic way.

So bookmark the 27th of May. Though HBO Max is not in India, but Indian fans will surely find their way to watch it. 😛
