Jennifer Aniston had a bit of a wake-up call when she filmed her Morning Show sex scene. I'm from the olden days, so I was like, 'What does that mean? The actress, who broke into Hollywood during the early '90s, jokingly continued, "We're seasonedβwe can figure this one out. Aniston, 54, also credited the episode's director Mimi Leder and Hamm for making her feel "protected" on set, sharing that she "never felt uncomfortable" filming their intimate scene.
It also helped that Aniston and Hamm were already longtime friends prior to him joining the cast as her character Alex's new love interest. As the Cake star explained, "I've known the Hammanator for a long, long time. In fact, the pair were introduced by mutual friend Paul Rudd , who made guest appearances on Friends as well as costarred with Aniston in the movie The Object of My Affection and 's Wanderlust.
But she isn't the only one who met the Mad Men actor through Rudd. As it turns out, that's also how Witherspoon became friends with Hamm. We can't get enough of Reese Witherspoon and Aniston on The Morning Show together, but it's not the first time the duo has shared a screen! Witherspoon co-starred on an episode of Friends as the sister to Aniston's character Rachel Green. Witherspoon gushed about Aniston and the experience, saying to Harper's Bazaar , "She was so sweet to me.
I was really nervous, and she was like, 'Oh, my goshβdon't worry about it! They would change all the lines and she was just so effortlessly affable, bubbly, and sunny. We've been friends ever since! Of course we know Courteney Cox and Aniston as besties on Friends , but the pair are also close in real life!
Aniston is the godmother to Cox's daughter, Coco , proving the two have a lifelong bond. In an interview with Access , Cox said that when she and Aniston hang out, "We just have fun, we laugh, we're inseparable and it's great.
