Matt LeBlanc Teases Friends Reunion

Update 4/10/20: TV Guide has learned that HBO Max's Friends reunion special has not yet gone into production and will not be available to audiences upon launch, as previously expected. The unscripted cast special is still expected to be filmed at a later date.

Previously 4/5/20: Production of HBO Max's Friendscast reunion special was one of the many Hollywood projects which got delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic, but Matt LeBlanc seemed to indicate that the episode had already been taped. He appeared on Monday's new episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, and in a preview clip, the actor answered in the affirmative when asked if he'd already shot the special for the new streaming service.

LeBlanc went on to describe the Friends cast special as, "the six of us together talking about the good old days," adding, "we got the band back together without the instruments" to confirm that it will be unscripted, as expected, rather than episodic. His update follows news from former co-star Courteney Cox, who appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live's at-home minilogue on March 26 and confirmed that production had been expected to take place that week but had to be postponed as a result of the ongoing health crisis. LeBlanc also didn't share any further details about what fans can expect to see in the special, but we still have our wishlist at the ready.

In a separate preview for LeBlanc's Kelly Clarkson Show appearance, the actor also remembers the exact moment when his sudden stardom got a little too strange, and in yet another, he absolutely crushes a round of Friends trivia, unlike a certain other Friends star.

Watch LeBlanc's full appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Monday, April 6. HBO Max debuts in May.
