Insider reveals how Matthew Perry intervened to stop a Chandler cheating plot in 'Friends'

A 'Friends' guest star reveals Matthew Perry's intervention in halting a Chandler cheating storyline, adding an intriguing twist to the beloved sitcom's plot

In the aftermath of Matthew Perry's untimely death, numerous memories are being shared.

The famous actor from the iconic TV show "Friends" tragically passed away due to an apparent drowning incident at his residence in Los Angeles. The investigation is still ongoing to determine the exact cause of his death. However, according to law enforcement sources, no foul play is suspected. At the time of his passing, Matthew Perry was 54 years old.

Since then, individuals have been nostalgically recalling the famous personality.

Lisa Cash, an actress who featured on the television show "Friends" in 1999 during its fifth season, recently revealed in a TMZ interview that her character's profession was initially different from a flight attendant.

Cash revealed that she was initially assigned the role of a hotel employee with whom Perry's character, Chandler, has an affair after a disagreement with Monica, portrayed by Courteney Cox, who had lunch with her ex-boyfriend, Richard, played by Tom Selleck. In the original script, Chandler goes to his hotel room in Vegas, where I, as a hotel worker, deliver room service," Cash explained. "We engage in conversation, share laughter, and develop a connection, leading to Chandler betraying Monica with my character."

Cash claimed that the situation had been rehearsed; however, he revealed that the day prior, while filming in front of a live audience, he received information that Perry had approached the writers and expressed concern that the audience would not forgive (Chandler) for being unfaithful to Monica.

"He might have had a point," she commented. "It could have potentially altered the direction of the show and his character."

CNN has sought comment from Warner Bros. Television, which produced "Friends," and like CNN, is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery.
