Netflix announced a documentary series about the life and career of Matthew Perry, known for playing Chandler Bing in the series Friends. Divided into three parts, the production will be called "The One About Matthew Perry" and is scheduled to premiere on October 27. The project promises to portray the actor's story from the beginning of his career to the last years of his life.
Matthew Perry died on October 28, 2023, at age 54, at his home in Los Angeles, United States. The actor was found unconscious in a hot tub. According to the Los Angeles coroner's report, the cause of death was acute cardiovascular disease associated with the effects of ketamine, and the death was considered accidental.
The investigation into Matthew Perry's death led to the accountability of people involved in supplying ketamine to the actor. In 2025, five people were charged in the case, including doctors and members of a drug distribution network. Among those accused are two doctors, a dealer known as "Ketamine Queen" and Perry's personal assistant.
