The actor best known for his role as Chandler Bing dished about his impending absence while filming an episode of The Graham Norton Show, and he sort of took the wind out of Friends fans’ sails.
“It’s not the reunion everyone is hoping for. They are celebrating Jim Burrows, who was a director of Friends,” Matthew Perry explains.
“The other five are going to be on this special and I am going to introduce them from London,” he continued. “I’m doing the play here so I can’t be there.”
Matthew Perry is starring in The End of Longing in London.
He admits he had no idea how enormous Friends would become.
“I knew it would be a success and that we had something special, but I didn’t know the giant hit it would become,” Perry says.
