With only two more episodes to go, Hulu is finally letting us behind the scenes in a new promotional featurette, including most of the main cast talking about the season. This season weaves past, present, and future together with flashbacks, intriguing new characters, and a mystery that shakes the Arconia to its core. From a time-jumping premiere to a star-studded cast and a new VIP in the penthouse, secrets unfold in unexpected ways. In the featurette, Meryl Streep talks about getting back on the show and the reason why she keeps returning. She is seen on set and having a good laugh with co-star Renee Zellweger. The main cast – Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez – praise their season’s powerhouse guest stars in the new season, counting their Oscars (one for Da’Vine Joy Randolph and three for Streep, while Christoph Waltz, Renee Zellweger and Dianne Wiest are all two-time Oscar winners). The full video can be watched in the video archive.

After a break in last week’s episode, Meryl Streep returned to “Only Murders in the Building”‘s eighth episode “Cuckoo Chicks”. Loretta’s flight to New Zealand has been cancelled, so she joins Mabel, Detective Donna Williams and a distraught Lorraine in their scheme to blow Camila’s cover on her involvement in the murder of Lorraine’s husband. They do so by attending a Ladies’ night at the casino. There was plenty of Meryl in the episode – and plenty of laughs as she made use of all of Loretta’s acting tricks to win Camila’s trust. So far, it’s not clear if Loretta will catch her flight and has wrapped for the season, or if there will be more. Two episodes remain. Screencaptures from the episode have been added to the photo gallery, alongside production stills and on-set pictures. Enjoy.

It took half the season, but Meryl Streep is finally back. Loretta made her grand return to the Arconia for the first time since her wedding, but sadly it’s for an unfortunate reason. Her apartment of 47 years burned down, and she lost everything in the fire. As we saw at the end of last week’s episode, Sofia and Rainey appear to be up to no good, which means the trio finally has two suspects that their Wondify contract doesn’t stop them from podcasting about. And in even more good news, Sofia returned Charles’s phone without issue, and he’s put that relationship behind him – so he’s back to the dating apps to satiate his testosterone-fueled appetite. Screencaptures and production stills from the episode have been added to the photo gallery.

Meryl Streep graces the September 22 cover of the New Zealand’s Woman’s Weekly. Her cover picture comes from the filming of “The Devil Wears Prada 2”. The article, unfortuantely, is quite generic, featuring bits from archive interviews and public knowledge, so don’t expect to be enlightened. Scans can be found in the photo gallery, with an excerpt from the article below: As the frosty and fearsome Miranda Priestly, Meryl Streep was at her formidable best in The Devil Wears Prada. Her 2006 portrayal of the disdainful fashion magazine editor, whose withering gaze leaves her underlings quivering in her wake, managed to win Meryl a whole new cohort of fans who hadn’t even been born when she first rocketed to fame. Now 19 years later, the A-lister is doing it all over again – sliding into Miranda’s oh-so chic shoes, looking every bit as indifferent and in vogue as she did the first time around. Filming for The Devil Wears Prada 2 has been underway in New York since June – with a release date slated for May 1 next year – and hardly a day goes by when fans haven’t been treated to a sneak peek of her in full Miranda regalia. From a pair of squaretoed snakeskin heels to a voluminous crimson evening gown, snapshots of the 76-year-old have been pored over by devotees eager to get a first glimpse of the star in action.

Only Murders in the Building season 5 is on the horizon! In a trailer for the hit whodunit show’s upcoming fifth season, Mabel (Selena Gomez), Charles (Steve Martin) and Oliver (Martin Short) dive headfirst into another mystery at the Arconia – this time, the eclectic trio is investigating the death of their longtime doorman, Lester. At the end of season 4, Lester was found dead sitting in a fountain in the courtyard, and the trio immediately suspected foul play. But when they receive a copy of the incident’s police report, Charles, Oliver and Mabel learn Lester’s death has been dubbed an accident – even though it happened in “the most murderous building in New York.” The upcoming season will see the return of characters Howard (Michael Cyril Creighton), Loretta (Meryl Streep), Detective Williams (Da’Vine Joy Randolph), Teddy Dimas (Nathan Lane) and Vince Fish (Richard Kind). New additions to the show’s star-studded cast include Bobby Cannavale, Renée Zellweger, Logan Lerman, Christoph Waltz, Téa Leoni, Keegan-Michael Key, Beanie Feldstein, Dianne Wiest and Jermaine Fowler. Only Murders in the Building season 5 debuts Sept. 9, with three episodes, followed by weekly new episodes on Hulu. The trailer can be watched in the video archive and the season poster can be found in the photo gallery.

New cast members for season 5 include Bobby Cannavale, Renée Zellweger, Logan Lerman, Christoph Waltz, Téa Leoni, Keegan-Michael Key, Beanie Feldstein, Dianne Wiest and Jermaine Fowler. In addition to announcing the premiere date and cast, Hulu also shared a synopsis for the new season.
After their beloved doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), dies under suspicious circumstances, Charles (Martin), Oliver (Short) and Mabel (Gomez) refuse to believe it was an accident. Their investigation plunges them into the shadowy corners of New York and beyond – where the trio uncovers a dangerous web of secrets connecting powerful billionaires, old-school mobsters and the mysterious residents of the Arconia,” the description read. “The trio discovers a deeper divide between their storied city they thought they knew and the new New York evolving around them – one where the old mob fights to hold on as newer, even more dangerous players emerge.
Earlier today, “Only Murders in the Building” received 7 Emmy nominations (make it 8 if you count a nomination for Hulu’s making of featurette for season 4 – there seem to be categories for everything). Unfortunately, Meryl Streep didn’t make the cut in the Best Supporting Actress category – neither did Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, nor Melissa McCarthy – who was tipped for a Guest Actress nomination. The only acting nomination went to Martin Short, who, earlier this year, received a Screen Actors Guild Award for his performance. The full list of nominations can be found below. The Emmys are handed out on September 14, 2025.
