‘Only Murders in the Building’ Goes Hollywood in Star-Studded Season 4 Trailer

It’s out with the old and in with the new in the first official trailer for Only Murders in the Building Season Four . The series will return to Hulu on Aug. 27 with some of its constants, including Martin Short, Selena Gomez, Steve Martin, and a murder that needs solving. But it’s also shaking things up with a host of new cast members that emerge when the crime-solving, podcasting trio heads to Hollywood.

When the Only Murders crew receives a script that would turn their podcast into a film, they jet off to Los Angeles. When they get there, they meet their big-screen doppelgängers: Eve Longoria as Mabel (Gomez), Eugene Levy as Charles (Martin), and Zach Galifianakis as Oliver (Short) — or as his real-life counterpart calls him, Zach Galifragilistic. The new trio of actors will have to shadow the OGs to really get their characters down. And it helps that they’ll get to do so while the team investigates a murder.

Charles’ stunt double and long-time friend Sazz Pataki (Jane Lynch) ends up dead from a gunshot wound just one minute into the trailer. While they’re poking around for leads, they discover that the mystery shooter seemed to be aiming for Charles’ apartment. Just in case the shooter wanted to finish the job, the trio hastily flees Los Angeles and head to the last place anyone would think to look: Long Island, New York.

Charles, Mabel, and Oliver seek refuge with Charles’ sister (Melissa McCarthy) there. Not only does she have a house for them to hide in, but she also has a weird rapport with Oliver that calls back to McCarthy’s Saturday Night Live appearances. Other newcomers in the cast include Kumail Nanjiani and Molly Shannon.

“Well, I’m very excited to see Steve, Martin, and Selena take a little break from the apartment building and come to Los Angeles,” Craig Erwich, Disney Television Group President, told Deadline earlier this year. “So in the same way that John Hoffman [showrunner] used the canvas of Broadway to tell what I think was one of the most unique seasons you’ve ever seen, the same unique Only Murders take will be applied to Los Angeles, which I’m really excited about.”
