Matt LeBlanc is not looking to get back in front of the camera, after the death of his costar Matthew Perry reaffirmed how ready he is to ‘rethink his life.’
MATT LEBLANC’S UPDATES
The TV comic, 57, who has rarely been seen in public in the year since Perry died, has reportedly chosen to follow in Jack Nicholson’s footsteps and silently retire from acting to focus on ‘what is important to him.’
It comes after pictures of a disheveled LeBlanc sparked concerns that he may be ‘unravelling.’
‘Matt is still upset over the loss of Matthew,’ a source said. ‘Such an important part of his life and a good friend is gone.
‘It has made him rethink his life. He wants to focus on other interests as that’s what is important to him right now.’

LeBlanc has not appeared in any film or TV projects since the Friends HBO reunion special in 2021, previously saying he was ‘taking some time off.’
His last acting gig was as Adam Burns on CBS series, Man with a Plan, between 2016 and 2020.
The source explained that persuading LeBlanc to return to screens would be a tough ask.
‘He would need the perfect opportunity to return in front of the camera for any role in TV and film as he has silently retired,’ the insider added.
‘He is financially stable and doesn’t really want to be in the limelight anymore. He has looked into how both Rick Moranis and Jack Nicholson did it.
‘They just stopped and decided to live life and be happy with what they did in the past. He wants to enjoy life and keep things simple.’
