FRIENDS fans were thrilled to see Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer back together on the small screen for a star-studded Uber Eats Super Bowl ad on Feb. 11. And the former costars were equally happy to see each other. According to a source, sparks flew between the longtime pals during the shoot. “Jen and David had a blast doing the commercial,” the source tells Star. “Jen usually gets stressed out in those kinds of situations but having David there really relaxed her. He cracks her up. The crew could sense major chemistry between them.”
The duo famously worked together on the hit NBC sitcom from 1994 to 2004, playing beloved on/off-again couple Ross Geller and Rachel Green. In the years since, the Friends cast remained in touch but Jen, 54, and David, 57, have been spending more time than usual together since 2021, when cast members gathered for the much-anticipated Friends reunion special. They were also there for each other in the wake of costar Matthew Perry’s untimely October 2023 death, sharing their grief. The buzzy Super Bowl spot was a chance for them to have some fun — and revisit their flirty vibe. Now the source says things have recently taken a turn — finally satisfying fans’ hope they’d become an off-screen couple. “The feelings Jen and David have for each other go beyond friendship,” says the source. “They’re taking things slow and keeping things quiet for now. Only a few close friends know and they want to keep it that way for a while.”
