Overview
- Netflix made The One About Matthew Perry available on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, as a three‑episode documentary directed by Mary Robertson.
- The series is built around first‑time on‑camera testimony from Perry’s sister Mia Perry Bowick and close friends, plus private photos and videos from the family archive.
- The final episode presents official findings from the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner that listed acute ketamine effects as the cause of death and named drowning, coronary artery disease, and buprenorphine as contributing factors, with the death ruled accidental.
- The documentary incorporates the April 2026 federal prosecution that led to a 15‑year prison sentence for Jasveen Sangha for supplying the ketamine and notes that other defendants in the supply network were also sentenced.
- The principal Friends cast declined interview requests for the film, though Mia Bowick says they attended Perry’s private funeral, and the series has renewed public attention on how addiction, caregiving and illegal drug supply chains intersect in entertainment circles.
