Sarah Paulson Credits Late Matthew Perry for Helping Her Land 'Studio 60' Role

Paulson Remembers Perry as 'One of the Most Generous People', Recalls His Extra Support During Her Audition

Sarah Paulson, co-star of Matthew Perry in the 2006 NBC series 'Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip', has credited Perry for helping her land her role on the show.
Perry, who passed away last month, is remembered by Paulson as 'one of the most generous people on the planet'.
Paulson recounts how Perry, due to his friendship with Amanda Peet, Paulson's best friend at the time, offered her extra support during her final audition for the show.
Perry asked Paulson to meet him in a parking lot where he ran the whole scene with her multiple times to give her an advantage over another performer.
Paulson got the job and credits Perry for taking the extra time to help her, something he did not need to do.
