On the Emmys red carpet, Krakowski revealed she had auditioned for the part of Rachel Green on the iconic sitcom Friends. "I like almost every actor in the world, auditioned for Friends. I wish I had gotten that one. I actually auditioned for Rachel and didn't go very far," Krakowski told Us magazine.
The actress also joked that her business manager was "very sad" that she did not get the part. The character of Rachel was ultimately played by actress Jennifer Aniston, which turned out to be her breakout role, making her the show's most famous cast member and spawning her successful film career.
As Rachel, Aniston won both an Emmy Award for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series and a Golden Globe award. Friends lasted 10 seasons, airing from September 22, 1994 to May 6, 2004.
