Paul McCartney almost guest starred on "Friends". Now that the show's over, there isn't a chance to make it come true, but just the thought of it would make fans thrilled. Emmy-nominated casting director Leslie Litt, who was working on the NBC hit series during most of its run, recently revealed that she tried hard to get the member of The Beatles to play the role of Ross' (David Schwimmer) father-in-law.
"I went through his manager and gave him all the details," Litt told The Huffington Post. "One day, someone in the office brought me a faxed letter written to me by Paul himself! He thanked me for my interest and said how flattered he was, but it was a very busy time for him."
If the British musician had agreed to do it, he would've appeared in the two-part season four finale which aired in 1998. In the said outing, Ross married Emily (Helen Baxendale) in London though he accidentally said Rachel's (Jennifer Aniston) name instead of his bride's name at the altar.
