Matthew Perry, the actor who brought to life the iconic Chandler Bing from the American sitcom Friends, passed away this afternoon, October 28, to the sadness of the thousands of fans who were hoping to see him on the small screen again. His death was reported by the TMZ news outlet.
According to the initial report, Perry was found lifeless in the bathtub of his home in Los Angeles with apparent signs of drowning. The exact details of his passing have not been shared by any official source or the city’s police, so we are still awaiting a statement from some entity or the family of the renowned actor.
At the moment, the only information shared by some close sources is that there are signs of drowning, and there were no drugs of any kind involved. This last point is relevant due to the multiple substance abuse scandals that Matthew experienced in his later years of his career, especially after the conclusion of Friends.
Perry’s co-stars from Friends have not yet made comments on social media, but it is expected that they will address the matter very soon. Among his co-stars from the series are Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, and Matt LeBlanc.
The Friends series was reportedly in talks to create a new season or at least an episode, although not many details were shared about it.
We send our condolences to all his family, friends, and fans.
