Actor George Clooney has opened up about his friendship with the late Matthew Perry, who a Los Angeles County medical examiner revealed last week died from the acute effects of ketamine earlier this year. Clooney said despite Perry being on one of the most successful TV shows of all time, "he wasn't happy."
In an interview with Deadline, Clooney, 62, reminisced about when he was taping "ER" – the long-running medical drama he starred on for one season – on a soundstage right next to "Friends," the hit sitcom Perry and his five castmates starred on for 10 years. "And 'Friends,' man, that was a fun time to watch those guys," Clooney said. "We were all really close."
Most of the cast members on each show were not yet famous, Clooney noted, but he said he and Perry went back even longer.
