Matt LeBlanc looks nearly unrecognizable in rare sighting

Matt LeBlanc looked nearly unrecognizable in his first public sighting in months.

The “Friends” alum was photographed Friday walking outside of a California car showroom in the Fernando Valley’s Van Nuys neighborhood dressed in a plain black T-shirt and dark wash jeans.

He kept his look casual with a dark blue baseball cap, Nike sneakers and was sporting a gray beard.

LeBlanc, 57, has stayed under the radar since Matthew Perry’s unexpected death on Oct. 28, 2023.

In November 2023, he made another rare public appearance to say his final goodbyes to his late co-star at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles’ Hollywood Hills alongside Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow.

The “Lovesick” star was then photographed at Nobu in Malibu a month later with some pals. He appeared upbeat at the time but then was not seen again until now.

The latest sighting is the first time LeBlanc has been spotted since five people, including two doctors and Perry’s longtime assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, were charged with the “Fools Rush In” star’s death.

The alleged criminals are accused with illegally supplying Perry — who struggled with substance abuse for years — with ketamine.

The “17 Again” star’s cause of death was found to be due to the “acute effects” of the drug. He was 54.

Perry’s former co-stars have not issued statements on the investigation’s findings.

Last November, however, LeBlanc addressed his longtime friend’s death for the first time.

“It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life,” he penned via Instagram alongside throwback photos with Perry at the time.

“It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend. I will always smile when I think of you and I’ll never forget you. Never.”
