As fans of the Hulu production known, the mystery comedy-drama created by Steve Martin, who also stars in the show, and John Hoffman, first premiered on the network in the summer of 2021, quickly garnering a loyal fanbase that demanded a second season, which subsequently premiered in the summer of 2022.
And, now, audience members are gearing up for another season of the wonderfully entertaining mystery.

Only Murders in the Building stars Steve alongside Martin Short and Selena Gomez as residents of an affluent New York Upper West Side apartment building, the Arconia, where a killing takes place.
The three neighbors, who all happen to be wannabe sleuths, start a podcast about their place of residence as a way to investigate the murder and uncover some harsh truths.

ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING SEASON 3 CAST
Steve, Martin and Selena are set to reprise their now-iconic roles but the actors recently took to social media to make some pretty awesome revelations about other casting choices.
In an Instagram video, Selena introduced some familiar faces, including Paul Rudd - who very surprisingly appeared in the season 2 finale as actor Ben Glenroy. Considering the character is found dead as soon as he's introduced, we expect Paul to star in some revealing flashbacks as the season will likely focus on the investigation behind his death.
