The Rollercoaster Life of Matthew Perry: Fame, Struggle, and Resilience

The Road to “Friends”

Before Matthew became known as Chandler Bing in 1994, his acting career was a mix of lead roles in short-lived shows and brief appearances in hits like “Beverly Hills, 90210.” The young actor was grateful for the work and the chance to learn, but fame and wealth were still out of reach.

He played leading characters in sitcoms like “Second Chance” and “Sydney,” but both shows ended after just one season. Then, a life-changing opportunity knocked. He was invited to audition for an exciting new sitcom, a show that would soon become a global phenomenon: “Friends!” This call marked a turning point in Matthew’s career.
