Years before she landed the role of Jacqueline Voorhees on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Jane Krakowski auditioned for (and failed to land) the part of Rachel Green on Friends.
“Like almost every actor in the world, I auditioned for Friends. I wish I had gotten that one,” the actress told E! News on the Emmy red carpet. “I didn’t go very far.”
Tea Leoni, Eric McCormack, Leah Remini and Jon Favreau are among other actors who auditioned for a part on the popular NBC sitcom before landing breakout roles of their own.
