Then he appeared in the movie called “A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon”, but he was actually noticed after his role in the movie entitled “Second Chance” where he played Chazz Russel. It was the time when Matthew Perry’s net worth started to rise, and soon after that he started to play Chandler Bing in “Friends”.
