Matt LeBlanc has been photographed out in public for the first time since the sudden death of his Friends costar Matthew Perry.
In photos obtained by Page Six, the actor was snapped driving around Sherman Oaks, Calif., in his vehicle by himself on Wednesday, Nov. 1—just four days after Perry’s passing, appearing somber in nature. He covered part of his face by wearing a hat and dark sunglasses for the outing.
It was first reported on Oct. 28 that the 54-year-old star was found that day in his Los Angeles home. He passed from an apparent drowning in his jacuzzi, however, an official cause of death has not yet been determined, as the investigation is "pending."
Perry played Chandler Bing on the hit sitcom, which ran for 10 years before ending in 2004, while LeBlanc's on-screen character was Joey Tribbiani.
Similar to their show characters, Perry and LeBlanc were great friends off-screen too, with the latter calling the “Fools Rush In” actor his “little brother” during a 2015 interview with People.

Another one of the pair's costars, Courteney Cox, was seen out and about for the first time after Perry's shocking death with her boyfriend Johnny McDaid, in photos captured on Monday, Oct. 31.
Additionally, Friends actor David Schwimmer was also spotted in public after the tragic incident.
The cast, as well as the show's creators, previously released a joint statement regarding the death of their pal, expressing, "We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss."
