Back in March, David Schwimmer revealed that the special would be filmed in April, saying in a radio interview: "Itās happening. Actually, in a little over a month Iām heading out to LA.
"So, finally, I mean, we figured out a way to film it safely and thereās going to be a portion of it that we filmed outside because of, you know, for safety protocols."
Jennifer Aniston previously teased that the show would be 'more exciting' because of the fact it was pushed back, telling Variety: "Unfortunately itās very sad that we had to move it again. It was, 'How do we do this with live audiences?' This is not a safe time. Period. Thatās the bottom line. Itās not a safe time to do it. [But] itās going to be super. You know what? This has also given us more time to make it even more exciting and more fun than it would have been.
"So I choose to see it as the glass is half-full that it got postponed. Look, weāre not going anywhere. Youāre never going to get rid of Friends, sorry. Youāre stuck with us for life guys."
