‘Friends Reunited’ trailer is igniting discussions among fans about its authenticity. The trailer showcases the main cast of ‘Friends’ attending ‘Chandler’s funeral’. Considering the skyrocketing popularity of fan-made trailers, it’s hard for fans, at times, to identify the difference between real and fake. This has led to fans questioning the legitimacy of this trailer as well.

So, is this latest Friends trailer even legitimate? Is another reunion movie happening? Find out all the answers here.

Is the Friends Reunited trailer real or fake?

Screen Culture, a YouTube channel popularly known for creating fan-made trailers, posted this Friends Reunited trailer online recently. The video is a compilation of movies and TV shows featuring the Friends original cast members. It also features AI-generated clips and footage from Max’s TV special Friends: The Reunion (2021). Its initial scenes showcase Matthew Perry’s Chandler’s funeral, alluding to the late actor’s sudden death in 2023. The trailer also appears to have AI-generated voiceovers of the actors.

Will a Friends Reunion movie happen post Matthew Perry’s demise?

A Friends Reunion movie or show is unlikely to happen, as creator Marta Kauffman had earlier dismissed the possibility. And now, after Matthew Perry’s demise, the chances have further reduced.

In a past conversation, Kauffman revealed that they don’t look forward to a reunion or reboot in the future. This is because the show had already reached a satisfactory ending and they didn’t want to spoil it. She explained, “We will not be doing a reunion show, we will not be doing a reboot. The show was about that time in life when friends are your family. It’s not going to beat what we did.”

Previously in an interview, Jennifer Aniston, who plays Rachel in Friends, also presented her take on why a reunion movie didn’t happen. She explained that despite the fans’ and cast’s desire, the producers didn’t greenlight it. “Because our producers wouldn’t want it, wouldn’t let us. Look, it’s not been without our desire to, because our fans have wanted it so much,” she added. Following Kauffman and Aniston’s comments, the possibility of a Friends reunion movie remains uncertain for now.

Will the original Friends cast return for a Friends Reunion movie?

The possibility of the original cast members of Friends returning for a reunion remains thin as the project itself is unlikely to happen. Previously, Aniston and Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe Buffay) expressed their enthusiasm for a reunion movie. However, they are aware that the reunion chances are slim.
