‘Only Murders in the Building’ Season 4 Teaser: The Gang Goes to Hollywood

Our favorite Arconia residents are back for “Only Murders in the Building” Season 4, except this time, they’re heading to Hollywood.

Selena Gomez, Martin Short, and Steve Martin reprise their respective roles as a trio of amateur podcasting sleuths who try to solve the shocking Season 3 finale surrounding Charles’ (Martin) stunt double and friend Sazz Pataki (Jane Lynch).

Per the official season synopsis, “Questioning whether she or Charles was the intended victim, their investigation leads them all the way to Los Angeles where a Hollywood studio is readying a film about the Only Murders podcast. As Charles, Oliver, and Mabel race back to New York, they embark on an even more epic journey — traversing their building’s courtyard to delve into the twisted lives of the Arconia’s West Tower residents.”

Meryl Streep and Da’Vine Joy Randolph also reprise their roles, along with new season stars Eugene Levy, Eva Longoria, Zach Galifianakis, Melissa McCarthy, Molly Shannon, and Kumail Nanjani.

Paul Rudd, Tina Fey, Cara Delevingne, Amy Ryan, Sting, Nathan Lane, Michael Rapaport, and Amy Schumer were among the star-studded ensemble casts for the first three seasons of the series.

“Only Murders in the Building” hails from co-creators and writers Steve Martin and John Hoffman (“Grace & Frankie,” “Looking”). Martin and Hoffman executive produce along with Martin Short, Selena Gomez, “This Is Us” creator Dan Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal. The series is produced by 20th Television, a part of Disney Television Studios.

IndieWire’s Ben Travers praised the genre-blending of Season 3, writing in his review, “As a murder-mystery, meta comedy, podcast spoof, and actors’ showcase, ‘Only Murders in the Building’ is a seemingly impossible combination of genres. Choosing how to divide its time is essential to its success, and Season 3 chose very, very well. Even brilliant detectives — aka everyone, when compared to yours truly — can’t complain about more Meryl Streep.”

And with Streep back for Season 4, we certainly can’t complain either.

“Only Murders in the Building” Season 4 premieres August 27 on Hulu. Check out the teaser below.
