Matthew Perry, the Friends actor who died in October 2023, spent millions trying to overcome addiction, his sister has revealed in a new Netflix documentary. His death, caused by the acute effects of ketamine, highlighted his lifelong struggle with substance abuse despite his determination to get sober.

Perry's sister claimed he spent $7 million on treatment, though the actor's 2022 memoir suggested the figure was over $7 million across 15 rehab stints, with Perry later clarifying it was likely closer to $9 million. The forthcoming Netflix documentary, titled The One About Matthew Perry, will feature interviews with his sister, friends, and colleagues from Friends, exploring his life and his battle with addiction.
