“The cultural impact that Friends continues to have, 25 years after its premiere, is astounding, a true testament to the genius of Marta Kauffman, David Crane, Kevin Bright, and the incredibly talented cast,” Warner Bros. Television Group President & Chief Marketing Officer Lisa Gregorian told PEOPLE.
“It is so amazing to know that the series is still bringing people of all ages together. We could not be more excited to deliver these digitally remastered episodes to theaters — for the first time ever! — so that together, in a shared experience, our loyal fans can enjoy some of their favorite Friends scenes in a new way.”
Tickets for the screenings will be available beginning Friday through Fathom Events.
Friends originally premiered on Sept. 22, 1994, instantly making stars out of its six main actors — Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer. It has since become a streaming-service favorite and will leave Netflix in 2020 for for WarnerMedia’s streaming service, HBO Max.
Along with the screenings, Friends fans can also celebrate the show’s 25th anniversary with a pop-up in New York City, which will include set recreations of series mainstays including Monica’s apartment, Joey and Chandler’s apartment and the coffee shop Central Perk.
