If you have missed adoring Rachel’s outfits, watching Monica and Chandler’s relationship grow, dreading Phoebe’s music, marveling at Joey’s love for food and hearing Ross drone on about dinosaurs, then chances are that you’ve been deprived of Friends for way too long. Our favourite gang of New Yorkers had abandoned us for 17 whole years before announcing an upcoming reunion special. Friends: The Reunion is all set to stream on HBO Max on May 27. If you’re in the Indian subcontinent, don’t worry - ZEE5 is going to bring the reunion special to you on May 27 at 12:32 pm.
As per the latest update from ZEE5, the reunion will stream exactly at 12:32 pm, ensuring that Indian fans are not left behind as the rest of the world gets exclusive glimpses into all the behind-the-scenes action from the original series. Friends: The Reunion is expected to feature interesting trivia, lots of trips down the memory lane and games that the original cast will play.
The trailer for the reunion, released earlier this month, revealed that the episode will follow Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and Lisa Kudrow’s visit to Stage 24, the iconic water fountain and more locations that have been integral to the show. With James Corden hosting a section of the episode, the six friends will be seen sharing their fondest memories and a host of experiences on set. Friends: The Reunion is also set to have multiple guests like Reese Witherspoon, BTS, Lady Gaga, Maggie Wheeler, Elliot Gould, David Beckham, Cindy Crawford, Justin Bieber and Malala Yousafzai.
Manish Kalra, Chief Business Officer at ZEE5 India, made the special announcement. “We expect high demand from users and would urge them to avail FRIENDS: THE REUNION Special unlimited viewing offer at least 12 hours in advance before the launch for a seamless experience. We are all geared up to make this a resounding success in India along with the rest of the world,” he said.
Finally ready to premiere after multiple delays owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Friends reunion will surely bring some much needed delight to fans of the show.
