"I'm hoping that all six of them will be in the same room atΒ the same time, but I'm not sure of that," Greenblatt said of theΒ Friends cast. "I'm not sure if we can logistically pull thatΒ off. But I think it's safe to say that all six of them will beΒ there."
The six performers, whose careers were launched by the show,Β have rarely come together as a group since the show went off theΒ air. Aniston, Cox and Kudrow last appeared together in 2014 toΒ spoof their Friends characters in a sketch on late-night talkΒ show Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Friends, which premiered in 1994 and followed six adultsΒ in their mid-20s trying to navigate work, life and love inΒ Manhattan, became one of NBC's most-watched shows and hasΒ appeared on lists of the greatest TV shows in history.
