Meryl Streep & Martin Short: Broadway Rumors Spark

0:00On April 21st, Meryl Streep is eyeing a Broadway comeback, and she might bring Martin Short along for the ride. The legend says she'd love to hit the stage again after her early days there, from 1975 to 1977. She's already chatted with Short about teaming up on a project, sparked by their time together on only murders in the building. That show clicked for them back in 2023, when Streep plays Short's love interest, Loretta Durkin. Their on-screen chemistry turned into real off-screen vibes, building a solid friendship. Short calls her easygoing and fun, no diva attitude despite all those Oscar nods. Fans are buzzing about the pair's bond, but reps ensure himself set the record straight. They're just close friends, nothing romantic. The coincidental casting just worked out perfectly, and everyone's hyped at the idea of them live on stage. Shifting gears, Streep shut down any memoir plans quick, says her life story would be too boring. But she's all in on reading others, like Barbara Streisand's book, which she devoured as an audiobook.
