Coming off of the season 3 finale which saw Jane Lynch’s character Sazz Pataki get shot, the upcoming season will find Charles (Martin), Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel (Selena Gomez) “searching for answers about who killed Sazz, if they were actually aiming for Charles and why anyone would want to kill either of them,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Steve Martin teases a star-studded season 4 of Only Murders in the Building
Hulu's season 4 of Only Murders in the Building is halfway done filming, with the cast set to be "star-studded." The show has previously featured a star-studded cast including Meryl Streep, Paul Rudd, Jesse Williams, Jane Lynch, Amy Schumer, and Cara Delevingne. Season four will feature new characters from Eugene Levy, Eva Longoria, Zach Galifianakis, Kumail Nanjiani, and Molly Shannon.
It’s unclear if Martin’s comments were referring to even more not-yet-named stars who will join the cast, but he told People this week that he and his co-stars believe season four could be one of our best seasons. Speaking to People magazine, Martin revealed, "It's star-studded. And I'm going to say we're about halfway through, and we are really enjoying this season." He further added, "We think it could be one of our best seasons. Although they're all flawless."
Season 4 of Only Murders will follow the main cast searching for answers following the death of Charles’ stunt double, Sazz (Lynch), at the end of the previous installment.
“We’ve loved writing Sazz so much,” co-creator John Hoffman previously told The Hollywood Reporter. He also elaborated on his experience killing off so many beloved characters (and big names).
“Actually talking to Jane Lynch about it and saying, ‘This is what we’re thinking.’ We had to do that pretty early, too, and that was very sweet,” he said. “She was like, ‘I love it.’”
