Friends Movie: They'll Be There For Us
I'm so NOT surprised...after seeing the recent success of the Sex And The City movie, yet another television show cast has decided to further their adventures on the big screen. Yes, rumor has it that the long-anticipated Friends movie is about to take off:
Cast members Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc, Lisa Kudrow and David Schwimmer will reprise their roles for a big-screen adaptation 'within the next 18 months', according to insiders.The actors have been inspired by the recent success of Sex And The City, which recently hit cinemas worldwide.
A source said: 'Jennifer, Courteney and the rest of the cast are keen to reprise their roles, under the right circumstances.
'The box office success of Sex And The City has really got their wheels spinning about how a Friends film could be just as big, if done right.
'Timing and the script are really important, but now that Courteney and Jen both have production companies, they can potentially get very involved in those decisions.'
It's reported that it was Jennifer who was dragging her heels, but now she's ready to put on the shag haircut again and make the movie.
Okay, let's face it...I've been sitting here for twenty minutes trying to think up something clever and witty to say about this, but I got nuthin'. The truth is, they all need the money because, after Friends ended, their careers went in the dumper. It hasn't been their day, their week, their month, or even their year(s). Jennifer has had the most movie success, and that's been iffy at best. They need this movie like Joey needs turkey. Like Monica needs to clean. Like Ross and Rachel needed a break.
And who cares? I liked Friends, for the most part, and they were good at their roles, it will probably be mindless entertainment (which ain't so bad), so here's a movie I am actually interested in. Yes, k is interested in a new movie. Get out!
