The stars of NBC’s decade-long sitcom hit Friends played bestbuds who’d always be there for each other – but sources say that surviving castmates Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer and Matt LeBlanc haven’t gathered together as a group since the funeral of fallen colleague Matthew Perry in 2023.
“People like to imagine they’re constantly checking in with each other,” says a former producer. “But they were coworkers, not real friends.”
Kudrow previously admitted that the six actors only had one group dinner between the show’s 2004 finale and 2021’s Friends: The Reunion during an appearance on Jesse Tyler Ferguson‘s podcast Dinner’s on Me. “There’s no animosity,” the source clarifies. “Just distance.”
