On the heels of "Sex and the City: The Movie" and its gargantuan success, there’s talk of a Friends movie in the works. It's not like we had any doubts!

Listen up! The gang may reunite for a filmThat’s right, we think the gang from Central Perk will be there for you -- for a price tag, of course -- in theaters in around 2010.

Since Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox Arquette both have their own production companies, rumors are flying to see if perhaps they’ll have more creative control than others and can get the film made.

If "Sex and the City" can achieve further greatness on the big screen, given the six main character and the rich story archive of "Friends," a movie could prove fruitful for the friends to say the least.

All we know is it would be refreshing to see them on screen -- but other than the slapstick comedy, can they really fill about 90 minutes of screen time?

Potentially...yes!

I really think that a movie would be amazing for Friends! This has been my favorite tv show since 6th grade (about 4 years running), and i think this will only increase the cast's popularity. So please please PLEASE make a movie out of it!

By preston Jul 8, 2008

it kinda disappoints me that she would regard this great show that she was a part of for a decade, the show that MADE her, as a red headed step child... I personally haven't liked her in any role since I've seen her play since friends

By Keelan Jul 8, 2008

Jennifer, you must do this, this will only help blossom your career not take it a step back, half the people in the world would see this movie on the day of the realease, please help to make this rumour reality!

Friends is the funniest programme show I've never seen!!!!

"Friends" Movie! Great news, hope to see everyone on the set. Jennifer the movie will not be the same without you and any other one that will not want to participate. Interesting, what the story will be? Love the show and I still watch it even though I have watched the series over and over. I can’t stop it; you never get bored by watching the show. Fantastic, love you all Chandler, Joe, Fibi, Monika, Ross, Jennifer. Can’t wait… Staten Island, NY

Friends is the greatest show on T.V. If they were to make a Friends movie, it would blow the Sex and the City movie out of the water. Matthew Perry (Chandler) is the funniest person on Friends. Hope they make a movie, Its The Greatest Show EVER!!!!!!!

By Renee Jul 7, 2008
