As previously reported, the "Friends" reunion special will not be a continuation of the series but serve more as a celebration of the sitcom's lasting legacy.

"Friends," which ran between 1994 and 2004 starred Perry, David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow and Matt LeBlanc.

The actors will appear as themselves and reflect on their characters Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler and Joey. But, as Schwimmer previously spilled on The Graham Norton Show last week, there will be "one section ... where we all read something."
