John Mulaney is bringing in the big guns when it comes to his legal team.
The “Big Mouth” actor said "out with the old and in with the TOUGH."
Mulaney is currently going through a divorce from Anna Marie Tendler, and expecting his first child with actress Olivia Munn.
His relationship with Munn was fast, unexpected and is rumored to be in trouble.

The Blast previously reported on the rumored trouble the couple was having.
Back in late October, social media was buzzing with breakup news. According to the anonymous gossip account “DeuxMoi,” someone sent in a message with the subject “Baby Time.”
The message read, “I’ve heard recently from a fairly reliable source that this B-C list celebrity and her baby daddy A list comedian have recently called it quits. Source is a friend who works in publicity, so make of that what you will, but she heard they’re not attempting to fake the relationship for the public, but won’t be announcing it either.”
Neither Munn nor Mulaney have commented on the rumored breakup, but Mulaney is making a comment with this latest power move.
And fans of Munn and Mulaney can rest easy, because the comedian is NOT taking legal action against the pregnant actress.
John & Olivia aren't in a legal battle!
Rather, Mulaney has hired a new lawyer to speed up his divorce from Tendler.
According to an exclusive report from Page Six, Mulaney has hired John Teitler, a NYC lawyer, to represent him in his divorce.
Teitler is one part of the well-known and “tough” law firm, Teitler & Teitler. They represent massive company executives at Goldman Sachs.
John wants to speed up divorce from Anne Marie Tendler
Mulaney filed for divorce from Tendler earlier this year after six years of marriage.
News of their separation was confirmed by their reps in May after Mulaney completed a 60-day stint in rehab.
In December 2020, he checked into a Pennsylvania rehab facility for drug and alcohol addiction program after being sober for 15 years.
“I am heartbroken that John has decided to end our marriage,” Tendler, said in her own statement. “I wish him support and success as he continues his recovery.”
Mulaney got very candid about his separation and new relationship with Munn during a September interview with Seth Meyers on his late-night show.
He explained to his long-time friend, “I went to rehab in September, I got out in October, I moved out of my home from my ex-wife. Then in the spring I went to Los Angeles and met and started to date a wonderful woman named Olivia.”
He added, “I got into this relationship that’s been really beautiful with someone incredible. And we’re having a baby together. I was nervous when I was about to say the news! I’m gonna be a dad. I’m… we’re both really, really happy.”
