Which actor played Rachel Green in the American sitcom Friends?

Jennifer Aniston played Rachel Green in the American sitcom Friends.

Rachel begins the series by leaving her wedding and moving in with her former school friend Monica Geller. Her storyline develops from a sheltered, financially dependent newcomer into a successful fashion professional and parent. Rachel’s relationships with Ross Geller and other characters form a major part of the show’s long-running narrative.

Aniston was one of Friends’ six principal cast members, alongside Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer. The role made her internationally famous and earned her major television awards, including a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series.

A common mix-up is confusing the actor with Courteney Cox, who played Monica, or Lisa Kudrow, who played Phoebe. Aniston later appeared in films including Bruce Almighty, The Break-Up, and Marley & Me.
