Meryl Streep is “the surprise you never saw coming” in Season 3 of Only kills in the building.
At the 95th Oscars on Sunday, Hulu debuted the first-look teaser for the upcoming season of the whodunnit, revealing the first look at Streep’s new character. During what appears to be a flashback to the table reading of Oliver’s (Martin Short) comeback Broadway production, everyone looks around in awkward silence as Streep’s character realizes it’s her way. “Oh my god, it’s me!” she says laughing. “I’m so sorry, it’s me, isn’t it?”

That bit of tongue-in-cheek humor is a perfect fit for this series, because that line can mean so many different things. Is Streep’s character just not a great actor, or is it a reference to Streep joining the cast? Or is she actually hinting that she could be this season’s killer?!
The first new footage of the season also reveals more of Paul Rudd’s character, Ben Glenroy, who joined the cast at the end of Season 2 for a surprise cameo as the co-star of Oliver’s play opposite Charles (Steve Martin). . Ben was found dead in the closing moments of the finale in a flash-forward, and Season 3 will focus on the central trio of Oliver, Charles and Mabel’s (Selena Gomez) investigation into his murder. Additional new cast members in Season 3 include Jesse Williams and Ashley Park.
Hulu has not yet announced a premiere date for Only kills in the building season 3. Now watch the teaser trailer below.
