Game of Thrones star Kit Harington will join a lot of other high-profile guest stars in the Friends reunion special on HBO Max.
Later this month, HBO Max will reunite Jennifer Aniston, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Courteney Cox and David Schwimmer to talk about their time on Friends, one of the most successful sitcoms of the past 30 years. The show was popular when it was on NBC back in the ’90s, and it gained a whole new generation of fans when all 236 episodes appeared on Netflix in 2015. The series has since moved to HBO Max, which clearly wants to keep the Friends resurgence going.
In addition to the six principals, the special will have a whole lotta guest stars who had nothing to do with the series, including David Beckham, Justin Bieber, BTS, James Corden, Cindy Crawford, Lady Gaga and Mindy Kaling. Game of Thrones veteran Kit Harington (Jon Snow) will also be part of the proceedings.
What will all these folk actually do? Since they didn’t appear on the show (unless I’m forgetting some guest appearance; there were a lot over the years), I’m guessing they’ll reflect on watching it and being fans. I can picture Harington’s talking head now, explaining how he’d go to his trailer after a hard day on the set of Game of Thrones and laugh through “The One with the Embryos,” or something.
Friends: The Reunion will drop on HBO Max on May 27.
