Friends Reunion 2014: Fake Friends Reunion Poster Angers Fans; NBC Said They Were Discussing Friends Reunion in April Last Year

Friends Reunion 2014: Two fake posters claiming that "Friends" will have a reunion in 2014 went viral on Twitter and Facebook last week. The poster depicted a Friends episode called "The One After the 10 Year Break." 

A Friends reunion could  happen, if Jennifer Aniston can be convinced to join. The other five Friends, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc are reportedly ready to join. Well, according to some reports, others, not so much Courteney Cox said "We are way too old to be showing what we look like from that to that. No, we're not doing one."

Back in April, 2013 An NBC source told E! that talks for a Friends reunion were happening but there was no "forward motion" on the project. Friends executive producer Kevin S Bright said he it would have to be a TV special, not a movie, saying: "It was made to be an intimate show in your living room".

"Friends" produers are trying to convince actress Jennifer Aniston to join a reunion. Matt LeBlanc starred in a spin-off about his Joey character, but it was short-lived.

Jennifer Aniston is the last holdout to a "Friends" reunion in 2014. The actress whose hairstyle started a nationwide trend has been avoiding getting back together with her "Friends" castmates. 

When asked Parade asked Jennifer Aniston whether she watched reruns of her old show she said "Yes, I'll stop and watch, though not the whole thing. It's fun for a second-you're like, what's this one?" 

Jennifer Aniston is being "slowly convinced" to do a "Friends" reunion in 2014 to coincide with the 20th Anniversary of the show's debut.

A source told OK! magazine "Since the show ended in 2004 it's been rare for all six of them to appear in public together. But with next year's 20th anniversary (of the show's launch) it will be unavoidable for them to do something together. It's the perfect excuse to talk seriously about a new project. It's no secret the whole project will be pinned on Jennifer, who's incredibly busy with her movie career. But she's been slowly convinced that a reunion could be a good thing."

"Friends" was  a runaway hit in the 90s. Taking the slot vacated by "Mad About You" and coming after the classic comedy "Seinfeld," it told the story of a bunch of friends living in New York City and drinking coffee. Jennifer Aniston was the fans' favorite. NBC's big hit "Friends" had a decade long successful run. 

Since "Friends" ended in 2004, Aniston has had a successful movie career, most recently in the movie "We're the Millers." But Jennifer Aniston hasn't really put her character "Rachel" behind her. Proroducers have wanted to Aniston to reunite with castmates Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer, since they broke up and it looks like that will finally happen in 2014.

Courteney Cox, who played Monica Geller on the 90s hit sitcom, best friend to Jennifer's Rachel Green,  has stayed close friends with Aniston and has been helping to pave the way for the reunion.

The source said "Courteney has been telling Jennifer that she and Matthew Perry have still got that amazing chemistry after shooting just a few scenes with him guest starring on her TV show "Cougar Town." It was as though no time has passed at all."

There is no word on whether the "Friends" cast will reunite for a TV special or a movie.
