| 4 | Matthew Langford Perry (August 19, 1969 – October 28, 2023) was an American and Canadian actor. |

| 6 | Perry was primarily known as a {{sitcom}} actor (most notably co-starring as Chandler Bing in ''Series/{{Friends}}''), although he also had leading roles in films like ''Film/FoolsRushIn'' and ''Film/TheWholeNineYards'', and his guest appearances on ''Series/TheWestWing'' earned him MediaNotes/EmmyAward nominations for dramatic work. Later on, he starred in several short-lived series like ''Series/GoOn'' and played Oscar Madison in the revival of ''Series/{{The Odd Couple|2015}}''. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | He also had a single voice acting credit, playing Benny in ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas''. Relatedly, he admitted to developing carpal tunnel syndrome from playing way too much ''VideoGame/Fallout3'', and it led to Bethesda giving him a role in the next title. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Perry was found dead at his home in Los Angeles on October 28, 2023, at the age of 54, from causes of acute effects of ketamine, which he was taking to treat anxiety. |
