Meryl Streep joins the second season of the HBO drama series, Big Little Lies, shown in M-Net.

The all-star cast of one of television most star-studded drama series just got even more "star-studdier" with the Oscar winner Meryl Streep joining the female ensemble of the HBO drama series Big Little Lies.

Meryl Streep will play Mary Louise Wright, the mother of Perry (Alexander Skarsgard), says HBO in a release character description, announcing Meryl Steep's addition to the show.

"She is concerned for the well-being of her grandchildren following her son Perry's death. Mary Louise arrives in Monterey searching for answers."

Meryl Streep joins Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon who are also executive producers on the series. Shailene Woodley and Laura Dern are also set to return. David E. Kelly is once again writing the scripts for all 7 episodes of the second season.

HBO says the second season of Big Little Lies will "explore the malignancy of lies, the durability of friendships, the fragility of marriage and, of course, the vicious ferocity of sound parenting. Relationships will fray, loyalties will erode … the potential for emotional and bodily injury shall loom."

The first season of Big Little Lies was shown on M-Net (DStv 101) exactly a year ago in February 2017.

Meryl Streep's addition to Big Little Lies is just the latest high-profile Hollywood film star following one of the current trends sweeping the TV landscape and that was highlighted and discussed last year by MultiChoice's head of content, Aletta Alberts.

"If you think of the stars you've seen on TV in the last 18 months - it started with Glenn Close doing Damage a few years ago - and it just continued. Now we have Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon. I think the Brits actually set the ball rolling if you think about this."

"Now if you're an A-lister or Hollywood star, if you're not in a TV series, you haven't quite made it," explained Aletta Alberts.

M-Net frees Alexander Skarsgård’s penis tonight across Africa in the penultimate episode of Big Little Lies.


Tonight in the penultimate episode of Big Little Lies, M-Net is unleashing Alexander Skarsgård’s penis, with African audiences who will be able to see for themselves what American, British and Australian viewers have been buzzing about.

Since Monday international viewers have been abuzz about the penis stealing scene, and tonight at 21:30 in Big Little Lies, DStv subscribers from South Africa to Nigeria will get to see Alexander Skarsgård go full frontal in a shocking – and painful – nude scene.

While it's the second time that the 40 year old Swedish actor reveals his trouser snake on M-Net – the first time was in the vampire drama True Blood – viewers who watched the scene with Nicole Kidman’s Celeste character the past two days, are now wondering whether Alexander who's putting the "big" in Big Little Lies, has shown the real thing or has been swinging around a penis prothetic.

HBO producing and showing Big Little Lies in America, has been silent about the question and didn't respond to media enquiries about Alexander Skarsgård's penis.

That isn't stopping people from talking about it – several with extremely hilarious comments.

Nicole Kidman told Vulture that the violent scenes on Big Little Lies took a toll on her physically and emotionally.

She said that the show has made a strong statement about sexual and domestic violence. "After we shot some of the really, really violent scenes, I was in a lot of pain myself. My body was. It was very strange. It was very uncomfortable."
