Years After ‘Friends’ Ended, Cosimo Fusco Once Shared Insight Into His Character Paolo

No one will ever forget the iconic NBC television series, Friends. While the
show might have ended way back in 2004, it is still being rewatched by fans all
over the world to this day. Although the entourage of David Schwimmer, Jennifer
Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, and Matt LeBlanc made up the
show, many others also captured attention.

Among those characters, there was one Italian star who dated the fashion icon,
Rachel Green. He was called Paolo and was played by the actor, Cosimo Fusco.
Years after the show had finally reached its end, the actor opened up about the
role.


COSIMO FUSCO DISCUSSED HIS TIME AS PAOLO ON FRIENDS

Back in 2019, Cosimo Fusco finally gave fans some insight into his role as Paolo
on Friends in an interview on Today. While the character was not around for very
long, only four short episodes, he ended up leaving a burning mark in her shared
apartment on the show. Although not much was known about the actor who played
the role initially, as he was more of an Italian star back then, he ended up
talking about his role in detail in the interview.



During the conversation, he told the interviewer that he was “skeptical” about
the role at first, as his “English was not as good” as it had become. However,
that changed once they told him that he could stick to his Italian. Once he took
on the role, Fusco revealed that he was able to say anything he wanted without a
script as long as it was in his language.

While that ultimately worked out in his favor, the actor also ended up
addressing the romantic scene in which he spoke lovingly to Jennifer Aniston
while showing her the moon and the stars.


COSIMO FUSCO SHARED HIS THOUGHTS ON HIS ROMANTIC SCENE WITH JENNIFER ANISTON

In the same interview with Today, Cosimo Fusco opened up about his moment by the
window with Jennifer Aniston in one of the Friends episodes. In it, he was seen
pointing out of her New York City apartment window at the night sky. While he
thought “Ross’ blah blah blah blah” was truly “genius,” it was his kiss with the
actress that “became more important in the years to come.”



He continued by saying that the diva had gone on to become “a very important,
talented actress,” which is not wrong given her current show, The Morning Show

However, when they worked together, he thought she was “an adorable young
woman.”
