The actor of Friends, Matthew Perrycould receive a posthumous star in the Hollywood walk of fameaccording to a new report.
Perry, who rose to international fame for his portrayal of Chandler Bing on Friends, died on October 28, apparently drowning in his hot tub. He was 54 years old.
Perry’s funeral took place earlier this week in Los Angeles, and all five of her Friends co-stars attended the service. The private service took place at Forest Lawn Cemetery in the Hollywood Hills, less than a mile from the television studios where the beloved sitcom was filmed.
A new report in TMZ suggests that the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which oversees the Hollywood Walk of Fame, “would love to honor the late actor with a star and a posthumous ceremony”, according to the publication. The final decision on such a ceremony would rest with Perry’s family.
TMZ also claims that Perry was selected for a star in 2013, but the award expired in 2018 and a ceremony was never scheduled.
