Friends’ star Matthew Perry dead at 54

Matthew Perry, the actor most known for his role as Chandler on the TV sitcom, Friends is dead.

According to multiple international news sources, the 54-year-old actor appeared to have drowned at a home in Los Angeles.

Following his time on Friends, Perry returned to TV again for starring roles in short-lived comedies like Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Mr. Sunshine, Go On and a reboot of The Odd Couple. In 2021, he reunited with his Friends co-stars for a reunion special on HBO Max.

On the big screen, Perry starred in films like The Whole Nine Yard, 17 Again and Fools Rush In.

The actor released his memoir titled Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing last year. In the book, the actor chronicled his struggles with substance use, as well as detailed his complicated relationship with the spotlight.
