I Noticed This Lil' Detail About Meryl Streep's Smile During "Big Little Lies" And Now I Can't Unsee It

Talk about going above and beyond!

ICYMI, last night was the Season 2 premiere of Big Little Lies.

HBO

Already, this season is off to a promising start. A big reason for that? The addition of Meryl Streep.

Meryl Streep plays Mary Louise, the mother of Celeste's (Nicole Kidman) deceased husband, Perry (Alexander Skarsgård).

Mary Louise has already proven to be a divisive character — with her critiques about short people and her need to let out bloodcurdling screams at the dinner table.

But the most interesting thing about Mary Louise, IMO? Her teeth.

Do you see it? How about in this pic?

Do they remind you of someone...perhaps Perry?

Uncanny.

Well, if you did notice, then congrats! You're perceptive. If you're thinking, "This is some bullshit," then guess what? You're wrong.

According to Page Six, Meryl sported some new chompers for her role as Mary Louise in order to look more like Perry (Alexander Skarsgård).

If you think getting fake teeth is going the extra mile, then you don't know Meryl. Not only did she sport some new pearly whites, IT WAS HER IDEA TO DO SO!

HBO

That's right! According to Cosmopolitan, Meryl reached out to her teeth guy and took it UPON HERSELF to get new teeth to look more like her fictional son. No one asked her to do this — it was all Meryl's doing. I stan an actor who goes above and beyond for her craft.

There ya have it, peeps. Meryl Streep got a new set of teeth to look more like Alexander Skarsgård. Truly an icon.

HBO

Just give her the Emmy right now.
