The cast of Friends returned to the show’s famous set in a full trailer for the reunion special.
Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer have got back together for a one-off episode to look back at the beloved comedy.
The trailer showed the stars wandering around the set at Warner Bros Studios, taking part in a trivia game and doing a table read of well-known scenes.

James Corden appears in the special and asked the cast for their verdicts on one of Friends’ most contentious issues – were Ross and Rachel on a break?
Aniston, who played Rachel Green, answered yes, only for LeBlanc, who played Joey, to reply “bullshit”.
“We have such a bond from this show,” Kudrow, who played Phoebe Buffay, said.
Schwimmer, who starred as Ross Geller, added: “Everyone was so perfectly cast.”
Aniston revealed a producer of a rival show claimed Friends was never going to make her a star while LeBlanc recalled the frenzied media interest in the cast, telling the others he saw aerial shots of their houses on the TV.
Cox played Monica Geller and said: “It was an incredible time. We became best friends.”
The Friends reunion special will begin streaming on HBO Max in the US on May 27th. An Irish release has not yet been announced.
