A trio of stars form an unlikely constellation when you watch Only Murders in the Building online, streaming now on Hulu. The comedy caper stars Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez (yes, you read that correctly) as neighbors who all share an obsession with true crime podcasts.
The first three episodes of Only Murders in the Building are streaming now on Hulu.
Charles (Martin), Oliver (Short) and Mabel (Gomez) are strangers who live in the same ritzy Manhattan apartment building. Charles is a former TV star dealing with a recent breakup, while Oliver is a failing Broadway director who is in danger of losing his apartment. And Mabel is a bit of a mystery, since her artsy interests and young age don't line up with living in a fancy flat.
They all come together after finding out about the death of another neighbor. Not convinced by the police's ruling of suicide, the three new amigos decide to investigate on their own and, naturally, make their own podcast about it.
The show was created by Martin and collaborator John Hoffman. Martin and Short have worked together for years, in movies like Father of the Bride and Three Amigos as well as headlining a stage act together. Gomez rose to prominence on the Disney Channel before graduating to a successful career as a singer.
