    Jennifer Aniston finds The Morning Show to be "a beast to film"

    The 56-year-old actress stars in, and ex ecutive produces, the hit drama series alongside Reese Witherspoon, and Jennifer admits that making the TV show is a draining experience


    The Hollywood star - who played Rachel Green in Friends from 1994 until 2004 - told People: "The Morning Show is just a beast to film. It is layered, it's complicated, it's emotional, it hits on a lot of topics and current events, so let's just say, it's not Friends."

    Jennifer and Reese, 49, have adopted a very hands-on approach to the show. But Jennifer appreciates having the support of an "incredible team" behind her.

    She said: "We're involved in every single aspect of the show, on top of just the performance side, which is a big piece of it. But I've got incredible support, and we have such an incredible team."

    Meanwhile, Jennifer recently revealed that she would love to reprise the role of Dr. Julia Harris from the Horrible Bosses movies.

    The actress believes "comedy is a necessity" in life, and she cited the Horrible Bosses film franchise as the project that she would most like to revisit in her career.

    Asked which past project she'd like to revive, Jennifer told People: "Horrible Bosses. Jason Bateman and I were talking about that, and Charlie Day has been talking about it a lot too. So that's something that we think would be super fun.

    "The characters are hilarious, and we need comedy. I personally think comedy is a necessity.

    "That's one that we would have a really fun time, I think, going back to, seeing where those crazy cats are today."

    Jennifer has enjoyed huge success in her career, including starring in Friends, one of the most popular sitcoms of all time. But the actress has one career goal that she still hopes to achieve.

    Jennifer shared: "I definitely want to do a Broadway play. That's on my bucket list, but it's finding the time and finding the right piece, the right material.

    "But I absolutely have to do a play on Broadway."
