Jennifer Aniston bursts into tears while making frantic phone call on ‘The Morning Show’: photos
She’s going through the wringer.
Jennifer Aniston was photographed looking tearful during an emotional phone call.
The “Friends” star, 55, is currently in Manhattan filming her Apple TV+ hit “The Morning Show,” and was crying on the phone as part of the show.
This comes on the heels of Aniston recently getting photographed looking furious, rushing through a crowd of protestors who threw fake oil on her — also as part of the series.
Now onto the filming of Season 4, the Emmy-nominated drama follows rival news anchors Alex (Aniston) and Bradley (Reese Witherspoon, 48) through the cutthroat and chaotic world of morning TV.
Both Witherspoon and Aniston earned Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series Emmy nominations this year. The ceremony will take place September 15.
Although “The Morning Show” has a prestige TV polish and has received Emmy and Golden Globe nominations, it’s had some oddball plot turns. For instance, last season sent Bradley to space and also had a plotline involving her being at the US capitol during the January 6, 2021 insurrection. Aniston also had a steamy sex scene with Jon Hamm.
Aniston previously told Variety that she refused to use an intimacy coordinator to shoot the scene.
“I was like, ‘What does that mean?’ They said, ‘Where someone asks you if you’re OK,’ and I’m like, ‘Please, this is awkward enough! We’re seasoned — we can figure this one out,’ ” Aniston recalled.
Although plot details for “The Morning Show” Season 4 haven’t been revealed yet, it looks like Aniston’s character will go through a lot of hardships. Perhaps the tearful phone call was about the oil incident.
Aniston has also recently been in the news for making a rare political comment.
The “Friends” alum called out GOP vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance on her Instagram story Wednesday after Vance’s comments from a July 2021 interview with Fox News went viral.
In the resurfaced interview, Vance, 39, claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Pete Buttigieg were “people without children” who were controlling the “entire future of the Democrats.”
In the clip that Aniston shared, Vance claimed the US was being controlled by “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and … want to make the rest of the country miserable too.”
“I truly can’t believe this is coming from a potential VP of the United States,” Aniston wrote in response.
“All I can say is … Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day,” added Aniston, who has previously opened up about her personal IVF story.
Aniston continued, “I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option. Because you are trying to take that away from her, too.”
Apple has not yet announced a premiere date for Season 4 of “The Morning Show.”
