Meryl Streep and Martin Short
Steve Granitz/FilmMagicMurders only in the Building throwback photos drop from Meryl Streep a Martin Short decked out in wedding gear from the season 4 finale.
“#BehindTheScenes from filming the wedding scene in 410. New York City, May 2024. 🩷,” wrote the official account of the Hulu series alongside a carousel of images shared via Instagram on Friday, December 20.
The first photo featured Streep, 75, and Short, 74, standing in front of a flower arch with white and pink roses outside the courtyard of the iconic Arconia building. Streep stunned in a floor-length cream colored gown that featured floral embellishments. Short, for his part, looked dashing in a lavender suit paired with a cream vest, tie and matching scarf.
The pair stood close together with their arms wrapped around each other as they smiled for the camera. The post also included snaps of more of the floral arrangements from the scene, the huge wedding cake and the series’ adorable puppy Winnie – who belongs to Short’s character.
Meryl Streep had “tears in her eyes” when talking to Only Murders in the Building co-creator John Hoffman about her on-screen romance with Martin Short. “It’s one of the most unexpected twists,” Hoffman told Decider of Streep’s character, Loretta, falling in love with Short’s character, Oliver, in an interview published Thursday, October 24. (…)
Many fans of the crime comedy flocked to the comments section joking with Streep and Short, who have been rumored to be dating in real life, looks like a full-on couple.
“You could have married Meryl and Martin, I would have believed,” replied one user while another responded, “We are behind the scenes I am convinced this happened 🥹🤍✨.”
Short has starred as Oliver in Only Murders in the Buildingg side Steve Martin (who plays Charles) a Selena Gomez (who plays Mabel) since the series premiere in 2021. Streep joined the cast in season 3 as Loretta, who is an actress and Oliver’s love interest. In season 4, Loretta and Oliver got engaged and their wedding took place at the end of the season.
Although the pair’s marriage was a success, Loretta and Oliver’s future is up in the air. In the finale, Loretta shared that she had to leave for New Zealand days after the ceremony to film her show. Olivier insisted that they would make the distance work as he will be staying at the Arconia alongside Charles and Mabel. The trio has another murder investigation on their hands as the steersman of the Arconia Lester (Teddy Coluca) was found dead in the well following Oliver’s wedding.
Only Murders in the Building was renewed for season 5 shortly after the premiere of season 4. Short, Martin and Gomez are expected to return, but no additional casting announcements have been made yet.
