Matthew Perry has heard from a “few” of his “Friends” co-stars ahead of the release of his memoir, “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing.”
The actor told George Stephanopoulos on “Good Morning America” Monday that he hopes Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and Courteney Cox read his book, which hits stores Tuesday.
“I’ve gotten some really nice texts from a few of them already, and the book isn’t even out yet,” Perry, 53, said.
“So hopefully, [I get] more,” he continued. “It’s very important to me that I didn’t go after anyone and I wasn’t gossipy [in the book].”
The Emmy nominee previously told GQ that his former castmates were “not going to care” about his memoir.
“Addicts are going to care about this, and fans of ‘Friends’ are going to care about this,” he explained to the magazine. “Why would they read it? I don’t know.”
Kudrow, however, wrote the foreword for Perry’s upcoming release, which focuses on his decades of addiction struggles.
“He has survived impossible odds, but I had no idea how many times he almost didn’t make it,” the actress, 59, wrote, noting that she was hearing her co-star’s story “in detail” for the first time.
“He’s now letting us into Matthew’s head and heart,” Kudrow added.
While Aniston, 53, LeBlanc, 55, Cox, 58, and Schwimmer, 55, have yet to comment on the memoir, Perry’s “Sydney” co-star Valerie Bertinelli was “mortified” by how she was depicted in the tell-all.
The “Hot in Cleveland” alum, 62, shared her reaction via TikTok after finding out that Perry described once making out with her while her then-husband, Eddie Van Halen, was asleep nearby.
“Anyone else misbehave in their 20’s and early 30’s?” she captioned the social media upload last week, set to Taylor Swift’s “Anti-Hero.”
Perry also detailed breaking up with Julia Roberts, going on a disastrous date with Cameron Diaz and having a pre-“Friends” crush on Aniston in the memoir.
