Lisa Kudrow Recently Recalled Being Blown Away by Matthew Perry at Their First Table Read
When Friends premiered in 1994, only Courteney Cox was the most recognizable name in the cast. Shortly after its premiere, all six of them would go and become household names, reprising their roles in 10 seasons. Kudrow played Phoebe Buffay, and Perry played Chandler Bing, who would end up becoming a fan-favorite character.
In a recent interview, Kudrow recalled how surprised she was during their first table read. She said during the Today show: “When we had that first table read, what Matthew was doing didn’t sound like what I thought I was going to hear. It was like nothing I’ve ever heard before, I went, ‘Oh boy,'” Kudrow added, “Matthew was blow-away hilarious.“
