Jonah Hill and Kristen Wiig‘s forthcoming comedy Cut Off is waiting for the right moment to branch out.

Published by Daniella Wilson

Lisa Kudrow has one big request for whoever is the next owner of Warner Bros. Discovery. During a recent interview with Architectural Digest, the Friends alum asked that the iconic studio lot in Burbank, California, where she filmed the beloved sitcom, be “preserved as is.” “It’s hard for me to tell whether Warner Bros. is just special to me, or if it’s special to the whole city or industry, and I think it is,” she said. “Everything changes ownership all the time and you don’t know what’s going to happen.” Kudrow continued, “I think most people really really hope whatever happens next is that this studio lot is preserved as is.
