Jennifer Aniston may have risen to fame through the 90’s comedy sitcom Friends, but the quirky actress’ full talents were revealed through The Morning Show on which she also served as executive producer besides an actor. Through it, the 59-year-old finally had the freedom to give voice to some of her opinions. Since its release in 2019, the show has delved into various thought-provoking themes. These include the pursuit of equality in the workplace and women-centric challenges posed by social issues.

Now, as the third season of the Apple TV show took off yesterday, its makers have chosen to stay true to its original themes. Particularly regarding events that have transpired since the previous season.

What recent events will Season 3 of The Morning Show cover?

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Aniston’s Echo Films co-owner Kristin Hahn revealed her impressions of the ongoing season’s script. According to her, the storyline already featured “aspects of” the Roe vs. Wade debate including its “overturn” which later occurred in real-life. For the cast, it was another “art imitating life” moment that shocked them all.

On the show’s latest season, the Friends star and Reese Witherspoon will headline the cast as co-anchors of a widely watched morning news program. Previously, through the first and second seasons, The Morning Show took on the challenge of speaking on equally controversial topics.

Meanwhile, the actors behind The Morning Show’s characters are currently fighting a battle of their own. Due to this, many fans have wondered if season 3’s upcoming episodes could be delayed.

Where is Jennifer Aniston not attending the show’s promotions?

One thing that was peculiar about the recent season’s release was that neither Jennifer Aniston nor Reese Witherspoon have engaged in its promotions. This is because both the co-producers and some others are currently engaged in the SAG-AFTRA strikes. As the strikes continue to haunt Hollywood, many artists like Gaten Matarazzo have joined the picket lines. 

Besides the Stranger Things star, many celebrities like Will Smith and Ryan Reynolds have expressed their solidarity with the artists who joined the protests. With Aniston joining their ranks, the celebrities’ list has gained another megastar.
