Clooney: 'Friends' didn't bring Perry joy

George Clooney reveals that Matthew Perry, his friend since they were 16, wasn't happy playing Chandler Bing on Friends. Perry's success didn't bring him joy or peace. Clooney was unaware of Perry's struggle with addiction, which Perry disclosed in his memoir. Perry's cause of death was confirmed as the acute effects of ketamine, drowning, coronary artery disease, and the effects of an opioid. Clooney's revelations shed light on why Perry wanted to be remembered for his philanthropic works rather than his role in Friends.
