Jennifer Aniston Once Shared Insights Into How She Found Creatively Fulfilling Projects

In the glamorous world of Hollywood, the search for creative fulfilling projects
and films can sometimes take a backseat to fame and fortune for some stars in
the limelight. However, that has not been the case for former Friends star,
Jennifer Aniston [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/jennifer-aniston/]. From the
NBC sitcom to her roles in Marley & Me and more, the actress has proved that she
can put out hit film after hit film, no matter the genre or role.

4 years after the now 55-year-old had wrapped up her time on the beloved 90s
show, Aniston ended up sharing some insight into the creative dilemmas she had
faced in her career.


WHAT IS A CREATIVELY FULFULLING PROJECT ACCORDING TO JENNIFER ANISTON?

In 2007, now People’s Choice Award winner
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-the-morning-show-fame-jennifer-aniston-wins-big-drama-tv-star-of-the-year-at-the-peoples-choice-awards/],
Jennifer Aniston was promoting her then-upcoming film with Owen Wilson, Marley &
Me. During the promotions for the movie, the actress sat down for an interview
with Paul Fischer for Girl magazine
[https://www.girl.com.au/jennifer-aniston-marley-and-me-interview.htm]. After
talking about the emotional flick for a bit, the interviewer asked whether the
star found it difficult to land projects that creatively fulfilled her. While
she agreed that it was “hard,” the actress believed that she had “been lucky.”

Aniston continued by saying that it was “rare” to find a project that “hit all
the right notes.” However, she added that her collaboration with Wilson had been
a “home run.” With the film checking all the actresses’ boxes, it is no wonder
that it wound up becoming a blockbuster hit when it was released at the end of
2008. While it might be one of her best pieces of work, the tragic pet lover
story seems to have been forgotten.

With movies like A Dog’s Purpose, A Dog’s Journey, and Rescued by Ruby taking
over the world, people seem to have left behind the 2000s Jennifer Aniston
classic, Marley & Me.


JENNIFER ANISTON’S MARLEY & ME

In 2008, just 4 years after Friends, Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson took over
Hollywood with their team-up for Marley & Me. It told the story of a young
newlywed couple starting their life together with a puppy, Marley. While the dog
might have destroyed everything in the house and almost ruined their marriage,
the couple realized that he, too, was part of their growing family.



Although the film had a rather sad ending with the dog’s life coming to an end,
the film ended up grossing $247.8 million worldwide after its release. With the
movie bringing in twice what it cost to make it, it ended up being one of
Aniston’s best-grossing films.
