[Edit this paragraph] Matthew's details

What if Friends didn't have Chandler's one-liners and the bitter "250" in humor? Are you still friends? Chandler, the funniest "weak guy" in Friends is matthew perry.

Junior tennis player

Matthew perry's experience as a teenager has many similarities with Chandler's: he was an only child, his parents divorced when he was very young, he went to a private boarding school, and so on. However, unlike Chandler's "weak" nature, Matthew is a strong man. He plays tennis very well. When he was young, he was the 17 junior tennis player in the world, especially in Ottawa.

Matthew's father, John Perry, is an actor. He once played father and son with Perry in Perry's 1997 movie "Stupid Love Come True". His mother Susanna, a Canadian, used to be a model and later served as the press secretary of the Canadian Prime Minister. Matthew's parents broke up when he was one year old, and Matthew has been living with his mother. Because of Susanna's work, mother and son have been living in a fixed place. It was not until 1978 that Susanna became the press secretary of the Prime Minister that she settled in Ottawa.

Matthew went to Ashbury College, an aristocratic school in Ottawa, but he was not a good student. He spends most of his time playing tennis and practicing tennis. Matthew has been practicing tennis since he was four years old. He is very talented in sports. Besides tennis, he is also good at ball games such as ice hockey and baseball.

At the age of fifteen, Matthew decided to move to Los Angeles to live with his father, because he wanted to be a professional tennis player, and Los Angeles had more opportunities than Ottawa. Two years later, his mother moved to Los Angeles because she missed Matthew very much.

Although he failed to become a professional tennis player in the end, tennis is Matthew's lifelong hobby. He once said: "Sweating to save the ball, I like to do such a thing." His tennis skills as a teenager have never been abandoned. After becoming famous, Matthew hired a professional coach to train tennis every day. His serve is very powerful, and his forehand volley is unique. In a charity competition in 2002, Matthew played agassi, the tennis player who ranked first in the world for many years and was recognized as having the best bottom line skills. He even took Agassi's powerful serve at a speed of-0/07 miles per hour.

Matthew is very proud of that goal. He said, "You can talk about how beautiful it is to walk on the red carpet and take a private jet all day, but when Agassi tried to serve an ACE ball, but you caught it and won that point, it was unparalleled." However, Matthew did not become a professional tennis player in the end. What made him make this decision was 1984' s big defeat in front of the whole family, and he finally decided to become an actor.

Of course, the hobby of tennis not only makes Matthew have some hobbies in his spare time, but also brings him many friends. He became friends with many tennis stars, including capriati, a female tennis star who was rumored to be his girlfriend. In June 2002, Matthew also rushed to the French Open to cheer for capriati.

However, Matthew said that there was no scandal between him and capriati. He said that they are very good friends and respect each other. However, Matthew said that if they fight on the tennis court, "she will kill me".

Matthew's most famous role at present is of course Chandler in Friends, but his talent is not limited to being funny on the screen. He is very creative. He not only improvised a lot of Chandler jokes in Friends, but also wrote a script. But like other Friends actors, Matthew has a heavyweight job to do in the movie.

Matthew's father is an actor. After he decided to give up his tennis career, he found many TV performance opportunities with the help of his father, but his first film experience was accidentally filmed by film director William richter.

1986, Matthew was in the tenth grade at Buckley School, a private high school in Los Angeles. One day, he played truant and flirted with three girls in a restaurant. Matthew kept telling jokes to please the girls, when the waiter handed him a napkin, and the film director William richter left a message on the napkin, inviting him to participate in one of his films.

Two months later, Matthew appeared on the set of One Night, opposite River Phoenix. By the time the film 1988 was released, Matthew had participated in many film and television works.

After graduating from high school, Matthew originally planned to go to the University of Southern California, but he gave up his plan to go to college and really became a professional actor because he got a main role in the TV series Boys Will Be Boys.

Matthew is an actor with strong style. At the beginning of his acting career, he initially established his humorous and playful performance style. His works include Growing Pains, Beverly Hills 902 10 and other influential works. In the TV series "Home Free" filmed by 1993, Matthew's performance style was further established, and the humorous "Chandler" began to surface.

Unable to get a long-term performance contract for the TV series, Matthew, somewhat frustrated, began to collaborate with his friend andrew hill Newman to create a script. Their co-productions include the TV series "Mai's House" and the movie "Imagine Emily", which were sold to Universal Television and Warner Bros. respectively.

Like other stars in Friends, Matthew's real breakthrough was Friends in 1994, and the immature and playful boy Chandler finally fascinated Matthew with acting.

After becoming famous, Matthew continued to develop to the big screen. 1996, he starred in "Stupid Love Come True" with Shaershan Ma Heyek and his father, but the response was not great. Later, his performance in "Almost Hero" was praised by film critics, but due to serious injuries in the movie script, Matthew still failed to become a real movie star.

Although none of his films were very popular, Matthew continued to make an appointment. After Tango III (1998), he co-starred with the famous movie star Bruce Willis in Black Boy Without Blinking, which is the best-selling film that Matthew participated in. Of course, Bruce Willis's appeal may still be the dominant factor for the audience to buy tickets. Matthew's latest work is Working for Sarah with elizabeth hurley. During the filming, Matthew was reported to have given up drinking in a nursing home and had an affair with Hurley, which delayed the filming, but was finally released smoothly. Although the box office of the movie is not good, Matthew doesn't mind. He will continue to look for new breakthroughs.

I don't want to die.

The loyal audience of Friends must have noticed the change of Chandler's weight. At first, Chandler's weight was normal, but in the middle, he suddenly became incredibly thin. In the last few seasons, he suddenly gained weight, and in the eighth season, he even got a little fat. The change of his weight is actually closely related to his health. Matthew on the screen is an out-and-out "trouble star". His drug dependence on painkillers and alcoholism almost killed him.

Matthew became addicted to painkillers in 1997 and 200 1, and had to be hospitalized for alcoholism in 2000. In 2002, fully recovered Matthew talked about those four years and sighed: "I went through a dark period ... I was recovering all summer, and now I am enjoying a new life again."

Matthew sighed for a reason. He said that he used to take 20 to 30 painkillers every day and then drink a quart of vodka every day (about 1. 14 liter). Marta Kauffman, one of the producers of Friends, said, "This is horrible. It's hard to see someone you care about so much. "

Matthew himself said that admitting his problems and asking for help finally saved his life. He said: "There is no so-called gray area in this matter. I am an alcoholic. "

Matthew said that he became addicted to painkillers after a skiing accident in 1997. He said: "I didn't expect to be addicted. At first I just liked the feeling it made me feel, and then I always wanted more. " He said that with the escalating drug addiction, "I can't control myself, I am very unhealthy." At that time, Matthew, who was six feet and one inch tall, lost twenty pounds. "I am as heavy as when I was born." Matthew joked.

At that time, Matthew spent 28 days in Ha Zeer Nursing Home in Minnesota. He said, "I can stay awake for a while, but I can't be completely awake."

But Matthew didn't completely get rid of his bad habits. In 2000, he underwent pancreatic surgery at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Due to alcoholism, his pancreas is inflamed and swollen, and if he is not treated properly, he may die.

Matthew said, "Unfortunately, it didn't stop me from drinking completely." On the day of discharge, he drove into an empty house, which made his image as a "trouble star" deeply rooted in people's hearts. Matt leblanc, who plays Joey in Friends, said, "I tried to talk to him, but he ignored me. This is a personal struggle and he must overcome it himself. "

By 200 1, Matthew's situation had deteriorated to the extreme. At that time, he traveled to and from the Friends' Club in Los Angeles and the Help Sarah Club in Dallas every week, but in such a busy job, he drank more than one liter of vodka every day. He said, "I never drink at work, but I still have a bad hangover." I am tired and trembling when I work. " He said that friends around him have expressed their willingness to help, but he said, "I am not ready to hear this. You can't wake a person. You must overcome it yourself. "

But on February 23rd of that year, Matthew finally decided to stand up and face himself. In his hotel suite in Dallas, he decided to call his parents for help. He said, "I'm afraid of death. When you decide to cherish your life, your mind will become clear and you will listen to your inner voice. "

When there were 13 days left in "Working for Sarah" and friends were still filming "Elbow", Matthew flew back to Los Angeles, and his parents drove him to a secret rehabilitation center. Matthew said, "It's terrible. I don't want to die, but I am grateful that my health has finally become so bad, because it has made me stronger and more eager to recover."

This trip to the rehabilitation center finally made Matthew quit drug addiction and alcohol addiction. He said, "I realized that life without alcohol and drugs can be very happy."

Friends in and out of the play

According to the original plan of Friends, Matthew's Chandler is a very minor role. But later, due to Matthew's outstanding performance and good response from the audience, the producer decided to increase Matthew's play, and Matthew naturally did not let everyone down. The role of Chandler has also become a favorite of many people.

Matthew has changed a lot during his nine years in Friends, especially after the extreme experience of life and death. He said, "It starts with realizing that you are not the whole world. This is life. I am lucky to have a cool car and enough money, but if you don't have inner happiness and don't think of others first, you will live a lonely and painful life alone in the big house. "

Indeed, Matthew, who has a pungent sense of humor, turned out to be a cynic, which is one of the reasons why he is deeply involved in drugs and alcohol. Commenting on his own words about "inner happiness", he said, "I used to call the person who said these words' How are you?' They will ask you, "How are you?" I will say' fine', but they will say' no, how are you?' I hate these things, but you know what? I am now a' greeting person'. "

Matthew said that his life is very healthy now and he will wake up early most of the time. "At about seven or eight o'clock, I watch" Today "while making coffee, and then I will practice tennis for a while before going to work."

Speaking of going to work, Matthew smiled and mentioned the cast of Friends. He described the opening of the ninth season as: "It's like going back to school, and you come back to tell stories about summer. In the first few weeks, you will be a little unfamiliar, and we will laugh and ask ourselves,' God, have we forgotten what to do?' But within three days, we were back on track. "

Matthew said he liked the success of Friends. At the beginning of the series 1994, he thought it was extravagant to spend $2,500 on a sofa, but now, the price of an episode of Friends is1000000, and his salary for the whole ninth season is as high as $24 million.

Matthew didn't say much when talking about this ridiculously high salary. He just said, "I didn't put it all in my pocket." However, he said that money made him feel good.

Besides money, Matthew also talked about his nomination for the Emmy Award for Best Comedian in 2002. He said it was like a dream come true, although he had been nominated before (but Matthew refused the nomination because six actors had an agreement that they only accepted the nomination for best supporting actor, and now this agreement was cancelled), but this time the feeling was so different. Matthew said that he didn't feel well that morning, but in the shower he thought, "I really want to win this time."

In Friends, Chandler is not liked by women. But off-screen, Matthew has many affairs. He had a brief love affair with julia roberts on 1996, and later there were heather graham, George Clooney's ex-girlfriend krista allen and actress lauren graham.

Matthew said he used to be like Chandler in Friends. "As long as there are girls who are suitable for me, I will find some reasons to screw things up." But, he said, he has lost this "nature" now. He said: "I am ready for some special feelings." When talking about what kind of girl he likes, he said, "I like girls who are happy and enjoy a normal life, just like the girl played by sandra bullock in Love at First sight."

Matthew, who has recovered, said that he is ready to welcome new students. For the future, he hopes to "enjoy life quietly" at the age of forty. He said, "I hope to sit on the sofa with my wife and children and watch Friends."
