Friends reunion stars recreate iconic fountain opening scene in glamorous outfits

The Friends reunion cast revived the iconic fountain location in the one-off special.

The fountain featured in the beloved opening credits where the theme song I'll Be There For You played out over the top of the sequence.

It's been 17 years since the final episode of the sitcom aired for fans all over the globe.

All dressed up, the star-studded cast — Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, Matt Le Blanc and David Schwimmer — gathered around the famous fountain.

They made a comeback to the location which become an icon for the show all those years ago.

Everyone looked incredibly stylish for the glamorous shoot shared ahead of the reunion's release.

It's no surprise the stars took a trip down memory lane as the location featured in every episode of the show in the opening sequence.

But the cast only ever filmed at the fountain two times, according to Warner Bros.

Die-hard fans could visit the fountain in real life and take their own fun photographs with umbrellas in front of it as part of a Warner Bros studio tour.

The fountain was one of the favourite locations revisited in the reunion nearly two decades later.

Behind the scenes, the stars invite fans to have a look at Central Perk cafe which was the characters' hangout.

Also, the cast returned to Monica's apartment which was incredibly emotional experience for them.

Courteney told Good Morning America: "I don't think they - the - any of us had any idea how emotional we would be when we walked onto the set.

"To see it exactly the way it was, the - literally besides the cookie jar that Lisa took home and the neon coffee thing that Jen took.

"Besides that, it was exactly the same. And it was so emotional that we just started crying."

The stars will have been paid between $2.5 million and $3 million for the reunion episode, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
