It has been 13 years since Friends went off the air after a 10-year run, but Lisa Kudrow - who played Phoebe Buffay on the '90s show - revealed that the stars of the beloved sitcom have recently reunited!
During an appearance on the Today show, host Savannah Guthrie asked the actress, “Could you ever get the group together?”
"We have convened," the 53-year-old actress replied. "Privately. For dinner."
"It was really fun. We had a good time. It was hilarious and we were laughing nonstop," Kudrow said about the untelevised reunion. "That was really mean. But if we don't tell you one is coming and then it doesn't happen, you have no reason to be disappointed. I'm managing expectations."
But according to Kudrow there doesn’t seem to be a plan in place to get new episodes of Friends on the air.
'I don't see it happening,' Kudrow explained. 'It would be fun, but what would it be about? Think about it: The thing we liked best about the show was that they were 20-somethings and they were their own family. Now, they all have families, so what are we going to watch?'
'Now we're boring, middle-aged people,' host Savannah added.
'Right,' Lisa responded. 'I don't want to watch me.'
Lisa starred opposite David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc and Matthew Perry on the series from 1994 to 2004.
The news comes after Matthew, who played Chandler Bing, admitted last year in an interview that he was concerned that a reunion could 'ruin' the show after the successful decade-long run ended 'so well.'
He said: 'That's the concern about doing a reunion show or a movie because it ended so well and you don't want to ruin that. Everybody always asks about a reunion and there's been no real talk of it.'
