‘Only Murders in the Building’ Heads to Hollywood in Season 4 Trailer With New Look at A-List Guest Stars
Only Murders in the Building is going bicoastal. Hulu’s series about a ragtag trio of podcasting crime solvers released another trailer for its fourth season on Tuesday, teasing Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel’s (Selena Gomez) big trip across the country.
The end of season three left the characters shocked by the death of Charles’ friend and former stunt double, Sazz (Jane Lynch). In the season four trailer, the group must balance their new investigation with a starry trip to Hollywood, after a film studio begins work on a movie adaptation of the podcast.

Hulu has hailed season four as Only Murders‘ “starriest season yet,” with guest stars that include Eva Longoria, Eugene Levy, Zach Galifianakis, Molly Shannon, Richard Kind, Kumail Nanjiani and Melissa McCarthy.
In June, the show revealed that Longoria, Levy and Galifianakis would play themselves as actors cast to star as the podcast crew, but Tuesday’s trailer offered a further glimpse at the tension between the main trio and their new onscreen counterparts. The clip also previewed Shannon’s role as a Hollywood bigwig behind the podcast’s movie adaptation and McCarthy as Charles’ sister in Long Island.
The trailer also features appearances from returning stars Lynch, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Michael Cyril Creighton and Meryl Streep.
Only Murders in the Building season four premieres on Hulu on Aug. 27, with new episodes every Tuesday.
