There’s no reason to do another season of "Big Little Lies," they said. HBO has heard your complaints and they have a two-word response: Meryl Streep. The three-time Oscar winner has joined the cast of "Big Little Lies" season two, alongside returning stars Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern, and Zoë Kravitz. She will play Mary Louise Wright, Kidman’s mother-in-law. Season one of "Big Little Lies" basically won every award it was nominated for.
