The hit HBO show is back.
Somehow.
The ending of Big Little Lies seemed fairly definitive, no?
Still, the thing was hugely popular and so Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern and Zoë Kravitz are returning this summer for more.
Together, they make up the ‘Monterey Five’, as people are now calling them.
“It’s gonna get us, it’s gonna get us all,” warns an ominous enough voiceover as the past threatens to undo everything.
Not only that, but we get our first look at Meryl Streep’s involvement.
She’s playing Mary Louise Wright, the mother of Celeste’s (Nicole Kidman) deceased husband Perry (Alexander Skarsgård, who will reprise the role in some capacity), and she’s asking the tough questions.
“I want to know what happened that night,” she tells Reese Witherspoon’s Madeline.
“I’m very tempted to ask you, but I… I don’t think I would get the truth, would I?”
We’ll see how it all goes down when Big Little Lies returns in early June.
