Based on information gleaned through the years, let’s try to figure out how much the Friends cast have made from royalties off the popular NBC sitcom.
(While this information is usually pretty speculative for other series, Friends’ contract details have spread fairly widely throughout the media.)
Friends’ six central stars – Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer – continued renegotiating their contracts and made sure they were all healthily compensated on the back-end of the production, so fans could easily assume that these actors were making out like bandits by the end of Friends’ run, and still to this day, considering all the syndication value.
