Martin Short loves working with Meryl Streep.
The 74-year-old actor has been romantically linked to the award-winning actress in recent weeks, and Martin has revealed that he's loved working with Meryl on 'Only Murders in the Building', his hit TV show.
The Hollywood actor - who plays Oliver Putnam on the show - told 'Extra': "It's been a friendship that always grows if you work with someone and love that person."
Steve Martin, their 'Only Murders in the Building' co-star, has also revealed that he loves reuniting with the Oscar-winning actress.
Steve, 79 - who co-created the TV show - said: "Meryl is a friend to all of us.
"If I don't see her for two years, you get back together and you're already laughing and talking."
Earlier this year, Selena Gomez admitted to being inspired by Meryl.
The 32-year-old actress starred alongside Meryl during season three of 'Only Murders in the Building', and Selena admitted to being in awe of her co-star during her first day on set.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Selena shared: "She was so excited, and when she came on set, she told everybody that she loves the show, and I don’t even think I spoke the first day she was around, I was just admiring her.
"She’s an inspiration, and she’s someone who is incredibly talented while being very humble, and professional and kind. I’ve learned so much from her just by her being Meryl."
Selena actually recalled being brought to tears by one scene in particular.
The brunette beauty - who plays Mabel Mora on the show - explained: "My favourite moment was watching Meryl sing onstage. That was chilling, and she would do it acappella, live every time, and I cried.
"I wasn’t in the scene, but I was there sitting in the audience, and I was completely moved and was brought to tears. Just the way she commits to her craft in every way is remarkable. It was beautiful."
