Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon’s bond, forged during Witherspoon’s 2000 Friends guest role, has evolved into a powerhouse partnership. Since 2018, the duo has co-produced and starred in Apple TV+’s The Morning Show, earning over $2 million per episode. Their latest addition? French actress Marion Cotillard, 49, who joins the cast as a media executive in Season 4.
At the recent premiere, Aniston, 56, hugged Cotillard tightly, while Cotillard praised her as a “beautiful soul” in Glamour. Aniston reciprocated, calling Cotillard a “walking beam of sunshine.” But beneath the camaraderie lies a tantalizing subtext: Cotillard’s casting may carry a hidden dig at Angelina Jolie.

In 2016, Cotillard starred alongside Brad Pitt in Allied, igniting rumors of an affair that allegedly fueled Jolie’s “poisonous jealousy.” A Hollywood source claims Jolie “hates [Cotillard] most in the world,” fearing a repeat of her own Mr. & Mrs. Smith romance with Pitt, which began while he was married to Aniston. Though Pitt and Cotillard denied the rumors, Jolie filed for divorce months later, citing infidelity.
Aniston, who endured public heartbreak when Pitt left her for Jolie in 2005, has since rebuilt a friendship with her ex. She reportedly supported Pitt during his legal battles with Jolie and even invited him to her 50th birthday party. Their backstage reunion at the 2020 SAG Awards—flirty and full of warmth—sent fans into a frenzy.
Despite Pitt’s current relationship with Ines de Ramon and Aniston’s new romance with Jim Curtis, their bond endures. Aniston once reflected, “I will love him for the rest of my life.” Yet, her camaraderie with Cotillard hints at lingering resentment toward Jolie.
While Aniston has forgiven Pitt, calling their split “amicable,” her alliance with Cotillard underscores a refusal to extend that grace to Jolie. As one insider noted, “There’s no forgiveness for the woman who wrecked Jen’s dream.”
