As a long-time fan of “Friends,” I’ve always admired the chemistry and comedic timing of the cast members. Hearing David Schwimmer acknowledge Matthew Perry’s praise for his physical comedy skills on the Origins with Cush Jumbo podcast was both surprising and heartwarming.
David Schwimmer recently featured on “Origins with Cush Jumbo” podcast, as reported by People. During the conversation, Schwimmer was taken aback when the host mentioned a past discussion she had with Matthew Perry, where Perry commended Schwimmer’s skills in physical comedy. Both Perry and Jumbo acted together for a season on “The Good Fight,” while Schwimmer and Perry worked alongside each other for ten seasons on “Friends.
On the set of “The Good Fight,” Jumbo, who admired Schwimmer’s physical humor for a long time, inquired from his co-star Perry whether Schwimmer’s comedic style seemed effortless or if it was something he deliberately practiced.
Perry discussed with Schwimmer how they were a crucial figure in the scene, often looked to for guidance on the physical direction of events. He explained that without their presence, things might not function smoothly, a point he found extremely flattering and likely accurate.
Schwimmer appeared taken aback by the tale, sharing with Jumbo: “That’s quite intriguing for several reasons, as it’s striking to learn this, given… such a compliment is massive and I’m taken aback to hear it because Matthew was rather reserved towards me; he wouldn’t say something like that to me, but I value his sentiment immensely.
Indeed, I’m among the select few from our cast who have undergone extensive theater training. Consequently, when it comes to film or anything that requires stunts or physical activity, I believe it needs to be meticulously planned and rehearsed. I would dedicate a lot of time to perfecting any physical comedy in a scene.
As a film enthusiast, I always took great care in crafting my physical comedy scenes on “Friends.” I meticulously structured and choreographed each one, not just to avoid injuring myself or others, but so that I could perform the bit repeatedly. I believe that’s what he might have been hinting at.
Perry passed away last October at 54 years old due to the sudden impact of ketamine. At that time, Schwimmer honored the deceased actor on Instagram with a post stating: “Your impeccable comedic delivery will forever remain in my memory. You had an incredible ability to transform even the simplest lines into something uniquely hilarious and surprising.
