"The One Where You Meet the Entire Cast of
'Friends'" was the latest celebrity entry into the #AllInChallenge
launched in the United States to raise money to help feed
Americans most at risk because of the pandemic.
Stars Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, David
Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc and Matthew Perry announced the contest
on their social media platforms.
"Be our personal guests in the audience for the taping of our @HBOMAX
reunion, as we reminisce about the show and celebrate all the
fun we had... and get the whole Friends VIP experience on the
Warner Bros. Studio Tour," Aniston posted.
"We hope this brings a little joy, and something to look forward
to," she added.
The sweepstake includes coffee with the cast on the Central Perk
television set in Los Angeles at a date to be determined.
The much-anticipated "Friends" reunion special on HBO's new
streaming service HBO Max was announced in February. But filming
has been delayed because of the coronavirus outbreak, which
halted all television and movie production more than a month
ago.
The hit comedy series ended in 2004 but found a new life on
streaming platforms. HBO Max will launch on May 27, officials
said on Tuesday, but the "Friends" reunion was not among the
shows listed as available at launch.
The #AllInChallenge, which offers unique experiences with the
likes of Justin Bieber, Leonardo DiCaprio and NFL quarterback
Tom Brady, has raised more than $14 million for food charities.
