During her candid chat with the outlet, Selena Gomez also shared her views on depicting the role of Mable Mora, starting with the first season of Only Murders in the Building.
Gomez explained that season one of the show felt similar to her experience of moving to New York for the first time, noting, "I think the first season mirrored my experience of moving to New York for the first time in over a month."
The actress further remarked that although she had worked there before, living "independently" and having her own apartment was "new" for her. She then shared how she enjoyed becoming her character (Mable Mora) and feels that the character is somewhat "a bit like her."
"It was fun to become these characters a little bit. She is a bit like me, though hopefully not as morbid. She’s an extension of me in some ways. I’m a weirdo, but my friends know that," Gomez said.
Only Murders in the Building season 4 will premiere on Hulu on August 27, 2024.
