Selena Gomez was all smiles and selfies as she strutted her stuff at the season four premiere of Only Murders in the Building at Paramount Studios in LA. The 32-year-old superstar looked like she just found out she gets free snacks on set for life. The excitement was palpable.
Selena whipped out her phone faster than you could say “Cheese!” and grabbed a selfie with none other than the legends themselves: Meryl Streep, Steve Martin, Martin Short, and John Hoffman. You know, just another day hanging with Hollywood royalty. She probably had to resist the urge to ask Meryl for life advice and Steve for banjo lessons.
The premiere was packed with the who’s who of Only Murders land: Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Jane Lynch, and a whole bunch of guest stars for season four. That’s right, Molly Shannon is gracing us with her presence, Zach Galifianakis will bring his trademark chaos, and Kumail Nanjiani and wife Emily Gordon showed up ready to flex their comedic chops. Oh, and let’s not forget Jin Ha and past regular guest star Ryan Broussard, who probably showed up for the free popcorn.
Meanwhile, Steve Martin and Meryl Streep were spotted snapping pics together, possibly to add fuel to the rumor mill that claims they’re Hollywood’s newest “it couple.” But hold your horses! Steve has already swatted those rumors away faster than a fly at a picnic, calling Meryl his “friend.” Translation: They’re probably just fighting over the last cronut.
So, what fresh drama is awaiting us in season four? Well, buckle up because Charles, Oliver, and Mabel are back to sleuthing! This time they’re trying to figure out if Charles or his stunt double (yes, he has one) was the intended target of the last season’s chaos. Spoiler alert: It’s a question no one thought they’d be asking. Naturally, they head to Los Angeles, because where else would you go to solve a New York mystery but Hollywood? The plot twists tighter than Steve Martin’s dad jokes.
Of course, no Only Murders episode would be complete without an epic trek across… their building’s courtyard. Riveting stuff. Along the way, they get tangled up in the wild lives of the Arconia’s West Tower residents. Which sounds suspiciously like something you’d overhear at a New York diner.
Mark your calendars because Only Murders in the Building season four is dropping like a hot bagel NEXT Tuesday, August 27th, on Hulu. Get ready for the mystery, the laughs, and, of course, more Steve Martin shenanigans!
