Would he turn into more excited?
Matthew Perry took to Instagram on Saturday to give a behind-the-scenes look at himself as he prepared for the upcoming ‘Friends’ reunion, but to delete the post moments later.
Seconds before I eat a makeup brush, not to mention reuniting with my friends, he captioned the selfie of himself in a makeup chair.
The post surpassed 27,000 likes before the actor removed it from his account.
Further confirmation can be found in co-star David Schwimmer, who told Andy Cohen in early March that the cast and crew would begin production “in a little over a month”.
“I’m going to LA,” he said at the time. “So, finally, I mean, we’ve figured out a way to film it safely, and there will be some of it that we’re filming outside because of, you know, for safety protocols.”
“Friends” stars Schwimmer; Jennifer Aniston, 52; Courteney Cox, 56; Lisa Kudrow, 57; Matt LeBlanc, 53, and Perry, 51, were initially expected to regroup for the special in time for the launch of HBO Max in May 2020. But with the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, filming was delayed, and again, and again, and again and again, and … well, you get the idea.
They’ve clearly had to shoot a lot since then, as the crew won’t be filming an actual episode. Kudrow confirmed in an interview with Variety last summer that she “won’t be Phoebe”. Aniston added that she “won’t be Rachel, although I am. We are all little fragments of it. Not really. But yeah.”
