‘Only Murders in the Building’: Meryl Streep & Paul Rudd Join Cast in Season 3 Posters

Only Murders in the Building is getting ready to unravel its latest mystery with pals Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short), and Mabel (Selena Gomez) at the helm, but they’re not alone as some heavy hitters join Hulu’s hit series.

As viewers will recall, Paul Rudd joined up as Ben Glenroy, a stage actor appearing in a play put on by Oliver and costarring Charles. Collapsing and seemingly dying on stage in the opening moments of the show during Season 2’s finale, Ben is poised to be Season 3’s victim. Meanwhile, Meryl Streep is stepping in as Loretta Durkin, another costar in the play.

Season 3 understandably finds Charles, Oliver, and Mabel investigating a murder behind the scenes of a Broadway show following Ben’s collapse on stage. Described as a Hollywood action star whose Broadway debut is cut short, Ben’s untimely death is sure to stir up trouble for the podcasting trio at the heart of this half-hour comedy.
