come Nov. 1 Jennifer Aniston will have a homecoming of sorts as the star of Apple’s “The Morning Show” — a big-budget drama set behind the scenes of a news show that looks a whole lot like “Today.” Aniston plays Alex Levy, a serious morning anchor whose personal life is complicated and professional life is more so, compounded by the sudden firing of her longtime co-host (played by Steve Carell) for sexual misconduct.
On a Tuesday afternoon in late August Aniston did a photo shoot for New York Times in her sunny, midcentury Bel-Air home to promote her new show, talk about turning 50 and her scary plane trip to Mexico with six of her best girlfriends.
