The highly-anticipated Friends reunion episode will air on 27 May.

Matthew Perry was comforted by co-star Jennifer Aniston as he burst into tears whilst filming the trailer for the upcoming Friends: The Reunion episode. The actor's character, Chandler Bing, famously said that he could not cry, which left his wife Monica Geller with the difficult task of making Chandler cry. The 51 year-old actor proved he can shed a few tears in real life when he broke down while filming the one-off Friends reunion episode. The star welled up, before the actor reminisced about his time on Friends. The upcoming episode will air next week on 27 May via HBO and HBO Max. The teaser was a trip down memory lane for the actors, as they filmed at the familiar Stage 24 at Warner Bros. Studios in Los Angeles. The introductory scene immediately takes viewers back to the past as Jenifer Aniston sits down next to Cox and LeBlanc on their old sofa for a game of trivia.
