James Michael Tyler famous for playing Gunther on Friends has died. The actor passed away peacefully Sunday morning at his home in L.A. after battling stage 4 prostate cancer. His family says … “The world knew him as Gunther (the seventh Friend), from the hit series Friends, but Michael’s loved ones knew him as an actor, musician, cancer-awareness advocate, and loving husband.” James first revealed his cancer diagnosis earlier this year, which stunned fans, as he’d just appeared in the reunion special and made no mention of it. He later clarified why he hadn’t gone public at that time — saying he didn’t wanna be a downer for the special moment He starred in 150 episodes of Friends over the course of its 10-year run.
