Jennifer Aniston Gets Tearful Remembering Matthew Perry and FRIENDS: ‘We Never Could Imagine…’

In a recent conversation with Quinta Brunson, featured on Variety’s Actors on Actors series, Jennifer Aniston found herself choked up reminiscing about the 30-year journey of the iconic TV show Friends.

Quinta questions Jennifer about what it was like for her to watch Friends in 2024. Jennifer, though hesitant and emotionally worked up, faces the question. Getting wind of Jennifer’s emotional state, Quinta kindly offers her a break to collect herself or even the opportunity to sidestep the discussion. However, Jennifer reassures Quinta, stating she’s okay and indicating her tears are not of sadness but rather joy, perhaps stirred by reminiscing over her good pal, Matthew Perry.

Jennifer candidly shared how it’s almost surreal to think that the show has been on the air for 30 years.

I talked on FaceTime with Courteney (Cox) last night for an hour, and Lisa (Kudrow) and the boys, and we just have a really — it’s a family forever (sic).”

With the spotlight on a friendly flock of six young adults, brought to life by Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer.

Matthew, who famously brought the character Chandler Bing to life onscreen, sadly passed away in October 2023. He was found lifeless in a hot tub at his home in Los Angeles. Come May 2024, the Los Angeles Police Department began investigating to uncover the origins of the fatal dosage of ketamine that triggered Matthew’s untimely passing away.
