Just when you thought this show couldn't get any better...
Meryl Streep. Yes, the Meryl Streep, soon to be larking about with everyone's favourite murder mystery-solving podcasters right in front of you. Truly, a gift.
While 'Only Murders in the Building' is no stranger to celebrity cameos, adding three-time Oscar-winner Meryl Streep to the show is still a big deal. And with filming having just begun on the third season, Selena Gomez posted some behind-the-scenes action from the set, introducing us once again to new castmember Paul Rudd and then revealing the one and only Streep herself.
There has been no announcement as to what character or how big a role Streep will play, but we can't imagine she'll be going unnoticed and just strolling by in the background of the Arconia.
Season three of 'Only Murders...' is set to focus on the murder of Rudd's character Ben Gilroy, a famous actor who we saw die onstage at the end of season two in a surprise time jump. Mabel, Charles and Oliver are unwittingly involved because the play Gilroy was starring in was directed by Oliver and also starred Charles. Murder really does just follow these three around.
There's no return date for 'Only Murders...' as of yet, but seeing as we got season two last June and filming for that kicked off in December 2021, we reckon it'll be on Disney+ this summer.
