Jennifer Aniston’s Career ‘Bucket List’ Revealed Post-‘Stalker’ Incident

She is best known for her role on one of the biggest sitcoms on TV, but Friends star Jennifer Aniston has now revealed her hopes to appear on another big stage.

In an interview with People, the actress, 56, revealed her desire to perform on Broadway. 

‘I definitely want to do a Broadway play,’ she told the outlet. ‘That’s on my bucket list.’

The problem is, the actress, who has off-Broadway experience from her early career, needs time to focus on ‘finding the right piece, the right material.’

‘But I absolutely have to do a play on Broadway,’ she stressed. 

The interview appears to be the first she has conducted since an alleged stalker trespassed into Aniston’s home last month.

The busy actress, who has done both TV and film, also admitted she is ‘forcing’ herself to take a break.

‘I’m a bit of a workaholic, so I’m forcing myself to try to take some time to travel and not work,’ she said.

It comes a month after Aniston endured a major scare at her home.  

Last month, a man named Jimmy Wayne Carwyle allegedly trespassed onto Aniston’s Bel-Air property by ramming through the front gates – with the actress being home at the time of the incident.

He was arrested by LAPD officers after being apprehended by Aniston’s own security team – but a subsequent ruling declared that Carwyle is mentally unfit to stand trial.

‘He is not competent to stand trial so although I know it’s not the outcome my client would have preferred at this time I would submit on those two reports,’ public defender Robert Krauss informed the court during a hearing last month following a second analysis that concluded Carwyle was mentally unfit to continue with the case. 

Deputy District Attorney William Donovan said: ‘The people will also submit.’

The Morning Show star admitted, ‘I’m a bit of a workaholic, so I’m forcing myself to try to take some time to travel and not work’

And with that, Judge Cavalluzzi said from the bench, ‘The court finds that the defendant is not presently competent to stand trial. Criminal proceedings are suspended.’ 

An ‘interest of justice’ hearing was scheduled for June 26 when Aniston or her attorney Blair Berk will be able to provide impact statements.

A more detailed report on Carwyle will be compiled by independent analyst Dr. Tumu at a cost of $1,100 to determine how to proceed with treatment for him.

Describing her perfect day she said, ‘It looks like a blank schedule — there’s not one thing on it,’ she explained. ‘That’s a perfect day, and then can I figure out what that day looks like as it goes’

Carwyle was arrested by LAPD officers on May 5 after ramming his car into the front gates of the Friends star’s breathtaking $21 million hilltop Bel-Air home.

Prosecutors say Carwyle ‘repeatedly’ harassed Aniston between March 1, 2023 to May 5, 2025, sending her ‘unwanted social media, voicemail, and email messages.’

In addition to stalking and vandalism charges, Carwyle was facing a charge for aggravating the threat of great bodily harm.
