Matthew Perry's Will Names the Executors of His Estate and a $1 Million Trust with a Legendary Hollywood Link
According to a new legal filing, Perry noted in his will that he wanted to leave his belongings in the “Alvy Singer Living Trust,” which is named after Woody Allen’s character in 'Annie Hall'
More than four months after Matthew Perry’s death at the age of 54, details about the beloved Friends actor's will have emerged.
According to a legal filing obtained by PEOPLE, the will indicates that the majority of the late actor’s belongings will be placed in a trust with a legendary Hollywood link. The document — which Perry created in 2009 — notes that he wanted to leave his items in the “Alvy Singer Living Trust,” which is seemingly named after Woody Allen’s character in Annie Hall.
His father John Perry and mother Suzanne Morrison are named trust beneficiaries. Half-sister Caitlin Morrison and Rachel Dunn are also listed as beneficiaries.
Perry also indicated in his will that any children he had would not be entitled to access his estate. (The actor never had kids.)

The filing also indicates that Perry had over $1 million in personal property when he died, which is in addition to what his executors — Lisa Ferguson and Robin Ruzan — have already put in the living trust.
Ruzan, who is Mike Myers’ ex-wife, was the executive producer of the game show Celebrity Liar on which Perry appeared in 2010.
PEOPLE has reached out to Perry's rep for comment.
Perry died on Saturday, Oct. 28, 2023 at his Los Angeles home. He was 54. A spokesperson from the Los Angeles Fire Department told PEOPLE at the time they responded to a call at 4:07 p.m. that cited a “medical emergency.”

The actor's death was later revealed to be caused by acute effects of ketamine in an autopsy report obtained by PEOPLE in December. Drowning, coronary artery disease and buprenorphine effects (a medication used to treat opioid use disorder) were also listed as contributing factors in his death, which was ruled accidental.
The autopsy stated that Perry — who was "reportedly clean for 19 months" — was on ketamine infusion therapy, with his latest treatment taking place just "one and a half weeks before" his death. However, the coroner noted that "the ketamine in his system at death could not be from that infusion therapy, since ketamine's half-life is 3 to 4 hours, or less."

Prior to his death, Perry was outspoken about his struggle with addiction. In his 2022 memoir, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, he shared his sobriety journey.
“I wanted to share when I was safe from going into the dark side again,” he told PEOPLE at the time for a 2022 cover story. “I had to wait until I was pretty safely sober—and away from the active disease of alcoholism and addiction—to write it all down. I was pretty certain that it would help people if I did.”
