Matthew Perry just wants to be young again.

The “Friends” star, 53, revealed he was hoping to once again work with Zac Efron, but it may not be in the cards.

Perry revealed during an interview on SiriusXM’s “Pop Culture Spotlight With Jessica Shaw” that he wrote a script for a new rom-com with himself as the star, but had his eye on Efron for the lead

“I finished a screenplay that we’re out with to some people. I want to direct that,” he said.

“I have a small part in it. I wrote it for myself and then realized I’m 20 years too old to play this. So we’re trying to cast the leads now.”

Perry noted that he had offered the role to the “Baywatch” star, however, he turned it down.

“He said no, so we’ve got to find someone who says yes,” Perry said.
