Only A-listers in the building.
The third season of Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building,” greenlit last month, is shaping up to be a promising one now that Paul Rudd has joined the already acclaimed cast as a series regular, Variety reports.
The news comes on the heels of the 53-year-old “Ant-Man” star’s cameo as Broadway star Ben Glenroy in Tuesday’s sophomore season finale.
“Paul Rudd, after making an auspicious entrance into the world of our show ... is someone we clearly want to know more about and see in our upcoming Season 3 — as he is a clear source of many upcoming questions and, as ever with our show, many twists yet to come!” said series co-creator John Hoffman in a statement to the outlet.
The mystery comedy series, which premiered last August, centers on a trio of New York neighbors — played by Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez — who channel their obsession with true crime podcasts into solving a murder in their building, until the second season implicates them in a subsequent murder in the building.
Among the show’s 17 Emmy nominations are outstanding comedy series, as well as outstanding lead actor in a comedy series for frequent collaborators Martin, 77, and Short, 72, who are currently on a comedy tour together.
