Kevin Reilly, CCO of HBO Max (and president of TBS, TNT, and truTV), said in statement: "Guess you could call this the one where they all got back together — we are reuniting with David, Jennifer, Courteney, Matt, Lisa, and Matthew for an HBO Max special that will be programmed alongside the entire Friends library.

He continued: "I became aware of Friends when it was in the very early stages of development and then had the opportunity to work on the series many years later and have delighted in seeing it catch on with viewers generation after generation.

"It taps into an era when friends – and audiences – gathered together in real time, and we think this reunion special will capture that spirit, uniting original and new fans."

The Late Late Show With James Corden's Ben Winston has been enlisted to direct the special - which some fans suspect  will be a cast interview.

The confirmation of the reunion comes after reports the cast would be earning $4 million each to film the unscripted special.

Deadline reported that "each of the six stars will be paid in the $3 million-$4 million range for appearing in the special."
