Hulu announced today that the streaming service has given the green light to Only Murders in the Building Season 4. With the writers’ strike now behind us, the writers room for Only Murders in the Building Season 4 will come together soon.
Season three of the Emmy-nominated series found Charles, Oliver & Mabel (played by Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez) investigating a murder behind the scenes of a Broadway show.
Ben Glenroy (Paul Rudd) is a Hollywood action star whose Broadway debut is cut short by his untimely death.
Aided by co-star Loretta Durkin (Meryl Streep), our trio embarked on their toughest case yet, all while director Oliver desperately attempted to put his show back together.
Only Murders in the Building Season 4 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 Hulu series is produced by 20th Television, a part of Disney Television Studios.
