A couple of few, but rare production stills have been added to the archives. The oldest find comes from the 1975 National Playwrights Conference rehearsal for “Dead and Never Called Me Mother”. There’s also a wonderful on-set picture from the filming of “Ironweed”, showing Streep and Nicholson out of character with author William Kennedy and his wife. The most recent find is a fantastic promotional still of Dee Dee Allen from “The Prom”. Enjoy the new editions and have a nice weekend everybody.

With the recently announced actor’s strike, we’re not going to see any promotional appearances in the coming weeks or months, which will definately affect next month’s premiere of “Only Murders in the Building”. We’ll see how this turns out. So in the meantime, let’s get used to our “From the Archives” category, which is keeping the site active throughout the year. A great big batch of additional public appearances pictures from 2001-2003 have been added – covering the timespan of Meryl’s “comeback” in the early 2000s with both “Adaptation” and “The Hours”. Can’t believe this is already more than 20 years ago. Enjoy the new additions and have a wonderful weekend.

We’re exactly one month away from the premiere of “Only Murders in the Building”‘s third season, so fingers crossed there’ll be some new promotion ahead of us. In the meantime, a couple of past television appearances and promotional interviews have been updated with better resolution screencaptures, including most of her visits to “The Oprah Winfrey Show”. There are also screencaptures from her early appearances on “The View” – in various degrees of quality. They all came from compilations to celebrate the show’s recent anniversary, I’m afraid we’ll never be able to see those interviews in full. Some great finds to complete the archives nevertheless. A complete list of updates can be found below. Enjoy your weekend.

On we go with our extensive picture update, this time covering most of the 1980’s. Among the highlights are pictures from the commencement speeches at Vassar College and Yale University (they were also sorted correctly – most pictures I always mixed together because the commencements took place on consecutive days) as well as the 1985 commencement at Lafayette College. There are also some fantastic pictures from the 1988 Academy Awards – one of the few occasiations she skipped the red carpet. Enjoy the new additions.

It’s been some time since we have posted additional stills of Meryl’s previous work, so brace yourself for a big update of fantastic on-set pictures and promotionals from her work, ranging from 1977 to 2021. Among the highlights are some stunning deleted scenes pictures from her motion picture debut in “Julia”, which was originally a much bigger part, but got reduced in the editing room to two brief scenes. Judging from these pictures, we’ve missed out a lot. The second part of the update will be posted next week. Enjoy the additions.
