		</div><p>Paul Rudd has revealed that he could have been fired on his first day on the set of Friends – after running over Jennifer Aniston’s broken toe with a Segway.</p>
<p>The actor was cast as Michael “Mike” Hannigan, Phoebe Buffay’s love interest and third husband, in the cult US sitcom, which is celebrating 25 years.</p>
<p>Despite appearing in only 17 episodes from 2002 to 2004, Rudd became a fan favourite and the role of Mike launched his career in Hollywood.</p>
<p>Speaking on The Graham Norton Show, the 50-year-old said: <em>“I was on the set for my first episode and Jennifer was on a Segway because she had broken her toe, and everyone was marvelling at it.</em></p>
<p><em>“Matt LeBlanc asked to have a go and immediately knew how to do it.</em></p>
<p><em>“I then asked to try it too. I spun round and rolled it right over Jennifer’s foot.</em></p>
<p><em>“The producer’s look of panic was as if to say ‘Is it too late to fire him? Has his character been established yet?’ I felt awful. Such an inauspicious start.”</em></p>
<p>The Ant-Man star also recalled another on-set faux pas.</p>
<p><em>“It was an incredible thing to be part of and the whole experience, but seems a bit surreal and a bit of a blur in my memory,”</em> he said.</p>
<p><em>“The show was a phenomenon and I was in the very last episode, which made no sense to me whatsoever.</em></p>
<p><em>“I was on the sound stage and Jennifer Aniston was crying and I thought ‘I’m not supposed to be here, so to break the ice I went over and said ‘Well, we did it, what a ride.’</em></p>
<p><em>“The joke inevitably fell flat.”</em></p>
