Beware of spoilers ahead …
Former Honorary Mayor of Pacific Palisades Martin Short, Selena Gomez and Steve Martin came together to announce that the second season of Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building” will premiere on Tuesday, June 28.
Martin Short can be seen in Hulu’s true crime parody. He is joined by his longtime friend Martin and Gomez in the Upper West Side of New York, forming a trio of murder-mystery podcast devotees. The first season of the show followed the three as they found themselves in the middle of a death investigation, documenting the quest on their own podcast.
“‘Only Murders in the Building’ follows three strangers … who share an obsession with true crime and suddenly find themselves wrapped up in one,” according to Hulu. “When a grisly death occurs inside their exclusive … apartment building, the trio suspects murder and employs their precise knowledge of true crime to investigate the truth. As they record a podcast of their own to document the case, the three unravel the complex secrets of the building, which stretch back years. Perhaps even more explosive are the lies they tell one another.
“Soon, the endangered trio comes to realize a killer might be living among them as they race to decipher the mounting clues before it’s too late.”
The season ended with the trio getting arrested for the murder of their neighbor, leaving fans to wonder what will unfold in the second season. All that has been confirmed (so far) is that Cara Delevingne is set to join the cast as a new character named Alice.
“Only Murders in The Building” proved to be a huge success for Hulu, setting a record for the most-watched comedy on the streaming platform.
The series, currently consisting of nine episodes, premiered last year on Tuesday, August 31.
