The 28-year-old Riverdale actor opened up on The Drew Barrymore Show about how he had a crush on the actress when they worked together on Friends, and how it affected his acting.
In case you forgot, Cole starred as Ross’ son Ben in multiple episodes from 2000-2002.
“Yeah, I did [have a crush on her]. It actually made it quite difficult to work in front of her, I must admit. I was a child, I would stammer a lot and I would forget my lines,” Cole told Drew.
“I feel like I’d maintain my composure a bit more effectively now, but it was quite difficult when I was a kid,” he continued. “And I was teased a little bit by the crew because they saw it and I would just forget and be looking at her, but then the whole world had a crush on Jennifer Aniston so.”
Cole also opened up about rebooting The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Bridgerton and more. Check it out in the video!
You’ll also see in the episode and the stills that Vanessa Morgan doesn’t appear to be pregnant as most of the premiere episode was already filmed before the show’s production was shut down due to the pandemic.
Season five will “begin with our characters’ final days as students at Riverdale High. From an epic Senior Prom to a bittersweet Graduation, there are a lot of emotional moments and goodbyes yet to come—with some couples breaking up, as everyone goes their separate ways to college—or elsewhere.
Then, we will redock with our gang as young adults, all returning to Riverdale to escape their troubled pasts. And life—and romance—will only be more complicated now that they’re in their twenties…”
Earlier in the week, we got some new photos from the prom in the season premiere, and earlier in the month, the trailer for the first part of the season was released.
Riverdale season five premieres on January 20th at 8pm ET/PT on The CW!
A couple of days later on Monday (December 7), KJ took to his Instagram story to wish his girlfriend Clara Berry a “Happy Birthday.”
“Happy birthday my love,” KJ wrote on the photo, along with two hearts.
Back in August, KJ and Clara shared a couple of cheeky photos that he took of her. The two confirmed their rumored relationship earlier this year, when he shared a photo of them kissing in February.
In case you didn’t know, KJ‘s new movie, Songbird, which he filmed during quarantine, is coming out THIS Friday (December 11)!
The 28-year-old Riverdale star and the model were all laughs while looking very romantic during their day out on Saturday afternoon (October 24) in Vancouver, Canada.
In the pics, the model slipped her arms inside Cole‘s jacket before pulling him in for a romantic embrace.
Cole can also be seen giving Reina a kiss on the cheek while she smiles.
Earlier this month, Cole photographed Reina for a new photo shoot that was shared on his Instagram.
