THE ACTRESS REVEALS WHY SHE’S STILL WILD ABOUT HER JOB

REESE'S showdown-They said I wouldn't  work again!

She’s a one-woman Hollywood hit-making machine, but now Reese Witherspoon has gone and made an enemy out of Jennifer Aniston. Yes that’s right, everyone’s favourite friend is now Reese’s biggest rival – but on screen only!

The pair star together in new comedy-drama The Morning Show and, even behind the cameras as co-producers of the TV breakfast show behind-the-scene series, the pair are just as tight as the days when Reese guest-starred with Jennifer in Friends.

That was almost 20 years ago and while Reese’s journey to now has been quite different to Jennifer’s, both on and off-screen, the two actresses have remained close.

The Morning Show sees Reese play the younger, more ambitious rival to Jennifer’s stalwart news anchor character, who faces a big change in her career after the shock departure of her co-presenter, played by Steve Carell.

What follows is a series inspired by recent news events and fuelled by the new shift of power in the media as well as other industries. With its sharp writing and star-studded cast, it’s little wonder The Morning Show has been chosen to launch Apple’s new streaming service, but for Reese it’s just another chance to tell a compelling story with positive female characters.

The 43-year-old mother-of-three is one of Hollywood’s most successful and prolific producers – so much so that it’s impossible for her to star in all of the projects she options. Going toe-to-toe with Jennifer on screen and working alongside her off it was too good a chance to pass up though, and she’s already preparing for more with a second season commissioned.
