Some of Jennifer Aniston's first roles were small-scale television appearances in shows, including Molloy (1990) and Ferris Bueller (1990). The latter was a relatively short-lived television adaptation of the classic film. Also in her early career, she was casted in Leprechaun (1993), a low-budget horror film. Her leading role as Rachel Green made her an international star and an overnight sensation in the TV series Friends (1994). She began her career in relatively inconsequential roles that hardly resemble the sitcom icon she became. Still, these small beginnings allowed her to hone her craft for the big leagues.
