“Friends” star Matthew Perry writes his memoir. He has been offered a seven-figure sum for his autobiography.
US actor Matthew Perry (52) is working on an autobiography in which he will report on his life and career. As reported by “Deadline”, Flatiron Books secured worldwide rights with a mid-seven-digit deal.
Perry is best known as one of the stars of the hit US series “Friends” (1994-2004), in which he played Chandler Bing. In May he returned to the original location of the cult comedy in “Friends: The Reunion” together with the other series stars Jennifer Aniston (52), Courteney Cox (57), Lisa Kudrow (58), David Schwimmer (54) and Matt LeBlanc (54) on the premises of Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank.
Look behind the scenes and inside
In his book, Perry takes readers behind the scenes and onto the stage of the sitcom. According to the announcement, it will also be about his private struggle with alcohol and drug addiction, which he is openly dealing with. In a 2016 BBC interview, he admitted: “I can’t remember three years, somewhere between season 3 and season 6 I was a little signed off.”
The untitled autobiography by Matthew Perry is the first memoir of one of the stars of the award-winning comedy series.
