Courtney Cox Arquette originally auditioned for the part of Rachel Green, but landed in the role of Monica. Leah Remini auditioned for the role of Monica. Maggie Wheeler also auditioned for the part but ended up playing recurring character Janice instead.
The role of Monica was originally offered to Janeane Garofalo, but she turned it down.
The Rachel Green role, which eventually went to Jennifer Aniston, ended up becoming the breakout character in the series. From the pilot episode, where Rachel ends up at the gang's hangout, Central Perk, wearing her wedding gown and veil and exclaiming how she left her fiance Barry at the alter, everyone fell in love with her. Aniston was originally supposed to fill the Monica, but when Jennifer walked in, the creators realized that Jennifer was the exact image of the bratty, spoiled yet lovable Rachel
