    Alongside starring in movies like Fools Rush In, 17 Again, The Whole Nine Yards, and more, he was of course best known for playing Chandler Bing on Friends over the course of 10 seasons. His work earned him a SAG Award alongside the cast, and an Emmy nomination.

    Shortly after news of his death broke, celebrities began sharing messages of how Matthew impacted their lives, whether they had the chance to work with him or just admired his work and advocacy in terms of mental health and addiction.

    His fellow Friends costars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer issued a statement saying, "We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family."
