The series has been nominated for four awards at the upcoming Emmys, including Outstanding Comedy Series and acting nods for Martin and Short. series co-creator John Hoffman said in a statement to Well, good news – Rudd is set to return in the role for season 3.

Maisel, Saturday Night Live, Only Murders in the Building and is always up for a Seinfeld rerun. It’ll be the same when season 3 arrives. But there’s no rest for Charles (Steve Martin), Mabel (Selena Gomez) and Oliver (Martin Short), as Only Murders in the Building season 3 is on the way with an all-new murder to solve. Charles and Ben Glenroy clearly had a lot of animosity toward each other — Charles basically threatens him in the final moments of season 2. This could be someone entirely new that we meet in season 3, but people that Charles would likely be protective of could include Mabel, Lucy or Joy. It wouldn’t be Only Murders in the Building without Selena Gomez, Steve Martin and Martin Short leading the way as our favorite amateur sleuths/podcasters Mabel, Charles and Oliver. Only Murders in the Building season 2 was about proving who killed Bunny and stopping our main podcast team from being framed. There is also a good chance that Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s Detective Williams returns as she remains a key ally for the Only Murders podcast team. There was about an eight month gap between the end of Only Murders season 1 and season 2. After seeing his character die on stage, we seem set to learn more about Glenroy before his death and his relationship with the main trio. That is still TBD, but with the early announcement and the cliffhanger ending of season 2, the wheels are already very much in motion. Shortly after that, Oliver gets a call and is offered a directing job for a Broadway show that opens in a year.

Rudd's new role in 'Only Murders in the Building' reunites him with Selena Gomez, as the two starred together in Netflix's 2016 film 'The Fundamentals of Caring'. 'Ant-Man' star Paul Rudd has joined the cast of 'Only Murders in the Building'. Season 3 was greenlit in July.
Disney+Hotstar/Hulu's star show had a phenomenal run in season 2 as well. The viewership has consistently remained high and even outpaced season 1 in most parts ...
The usual modus operandi for Only Murders has been in the aftermath of the murder solving it. Fans of the Hollywood star have already petitioned the network on social media to do so and it would be a waste to see Rudd in just a guest appearance. The network is yet to release the exact dates for season 3’s premier. Only Murders in the Building has been quite the wild ride this year. Craig Erwich, President of Hulu Originals, said in a statement, “Only Murders in the Building is the true crown jewel of our slate. Read on to know if Only Murders Building has been renewed for season 3:
Without Steve Martin as Charles, Martin Short as Oliver, and Selena Gomez as Mabel, Only Murders unquestionably wouldn't work. You can be sure they'll return ...
When might the third season of Murders in the Building be available to watch? Only Murders in the Building is a true crown jewel of our slate, according to Craig Erwich, president of Hulu Originals and ABC Entertainment, who made the announcement. After all, why would she pass up the chance to delve into a celebrity’s demise? Although the precise release date is yet unknown, the production team does appear to work more quickly than most on this comedy-drama. But will there be a season three, and when can we anticipate it? It seems like only a team of nosy podcasters could crack this case.
We already knew that season three was on the horizon, but what we didn't know is who would bite the bullet - or should we say, collapse on stage and spit ...
It's been confirmed that Rudd will return for season three of 'Only Murders in the Building', presumedly for a series of flashbacks so we can get to the bottom of his and Charles' (Steve Martin) frosty relationship - or maybe he miraculously survived? Although we were initially led to believe Tina Fey's horrible podcast host Cinda Canning was the chief suspect, followed by If you've made it this far, then we'll take it you already know who this is - the one and only
The killer reveal in the Season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building" hinged on a liverwurst and marmalade sandwich. We tried it out.
For now, I must agree with the Pickle Diner in that this particular sandwich is an "acquired taste." Perhaps there is a secret to the Pickle Diner liverwurst and marmalade sandwich that makes it work. The sweetness of the marmalade combined decently with the salty meatiness of the liverwurst. In the beginning, I didn't mind the combination of liverwurst and marmalade. It wouldn't do to ruin the integrity of the sandwich with ingredients that weren't specified in the show. Consider the dots connected and the only murderer in the building caught!
Season 2 often projects that the murder that pivots the story is also the 'work of an artist'. But these plot points are distractions, artistic deceptions that ...
But Schumer's confession that she's still grappling, Oliver's struggle to land a Broadway job, Charles making an underwhelming return to the show that made him famous, and Mabel searching a direction for her art — Only Murders in the Building shows every art, old and new, is fading, and every artist fledgling. I don't want to be the Nickleback of crime podcast," says Cinda Canning in the season finale. Similarly, Season 2 projects that the murder that pivots the story is also the 'work of an artist'. The insecurity isn't just limited to the killer, but even the crime solvers. In fact, while paintings can still be considered 'art' for they encapsulate a personal or communal tragedy, crime podcasts are dime-a-dozen in the era of social media and Spotify. New-age art platforms like podcasts pushing vintage forms like paintings to extinction is never a debate the show is interested in. And to ensure her place in the art food chain remains concealed, she tries to poison him, just like she did her previous boyfriend. The first season revealed Jen to be the killer and her motive to be the fact that she hates to play second fiddle. The idea of a 'failed artist' as a criminal isn't novel, and even dates back to Adolf Hitler. Poppy, Canning's assistant who is ultimately revealed to be the killer, also finds her incentive in manufacturing a tragedy so she could make a podcast out of it. Alice (Cara Delevingne) is teased as a suspect at one point, when she uses her girlfriend's tragedy for art's sake. Nina is initially considered the prime suspect for the same reason.
The cliched title of this episode means that the season 2 finale of Only Murders in the Building will go old-style in solving the murder of Bunny Folger.
Oliver reveals the truth to his son William about his biological lineage and William is okay with it. She also compliments her for her investigative work on the podcast and suggests she should have her “own podcast”. Poppy brings up her painting idea and Mabel says Poppy was more interested in the story and Bunny’s painting than Cinda. Her entrance coincides with Charles saying “we have the murderer here..” So, is Alice the murderer and Cinda involved in the trio’s plan? Oliver starts the live stream and in walk Cinda and Poppy. “14 Savage” actually means “14 million for the Savage painting”. As the residents get antsy, the trio barges in with a camera, tripod, and some accessories to create a fantastic play. Lester, Howard, and his new partner, all show enthusiasm to participate in the manipulative scheme designed to get a confession from Cinda. Now, they need a plan to get a confession out of her and go to Poppy for help. The trio and Poppy meet at the Pickle Diner. The trio plans to catch her in the act before the finale of her podcast drops the next day and implicates them. Cinda takes both, the story and Poppy, and her podcast becomes a big hit.
Hulu's Only Murders in the Building both challenged and rewarded fans when revealing the killer's identity in the second season's finale.
The very ending of the episode is absolutely enthralling, and my appreciation remains high for the structure Only Murders in the Building has given to its two seasons so far. Cindy (Tina Fey) and Poppy (Adina Verson) continue a gripping dynamic that keeps the mystery alive until it absolutely needs to be revealed. It became a truly surprising turn of events in the latter half of the episode, using classic methods in the mystery genre in a way that fits the environment and character strengths.
Commenting on the reveal of the killer and the murder setup for season three of the Hulu/Disney+, Hoffman discussed who killed Bunny and Paul Rudd's forthcoming ...
“When we started really delving into Poppy, like we do with all of our characters, all of that exploration in the room for the season made it feel like, ‘Oh, my God. ?; It started to feel like the model for what worked in the past for her, to create a situation that became a podcast — that’s how she got a job with Cinda, that’s how she found her way in.” We were looking for a way to make the history there deeper and more dimensional.

With the reveal of Bunny’s real killer, we learn that Poppy had ideas to do a podcast on Rose Cooper (Shirley McLaine), but Cinda declined, and Bunny also refused to sell the painting to Poppy in a meeting at the Pickle Diner. Poppy plants the murder weapon in Charles’ apartment, but her allergies to birds (Charles’ niece, Lucy, noticed sneezing in the tunnels the night of the murder) ends up damning her and leading the podcasters to her. After meeting Mabel, Charles, and Oliver however, genius strikes (in her book) and she comes up with a plan to frame the Only Murders protagonists for murder by killing Bunny and hiding in the Arconia’s secret passageways. With those dots all connected, Mabel realizes that Bunny’s last words were not “14, Savage,” it was “14 sandwich.” The #14 is a sandwich order at the Pickle Diner consisting of Liverwurst & Marmalade, that they all see Poppy order.

In the Season 2 finale of Only Murders, we learn that the true killer behind Bunny’s death is Adina Verson’s Poppy White, the assistant to fellow true crime podcaster, Cinda Canning (Tina Fey). It’s time to break down everything that happened during the Only Murders in The Building Season 2 ending and what it means going forward. After living a miserable live in rural Oklahoma and being a big fan of Cinda’s podcast, she reached out to Cinda to help her with the podcast by faking the incident, however she has since became stuck in an intern role instead of rising to glory. Throughout Season 2, Mabel, Steve Martin’s Charles, and Martin Short’s Oliver have been rolling out a new edition of their mystery podcast, along with trying to figure out how to clear their names of being framed for Bunny’s death. The fictional Only Murders In The Building podcast has completed its second mystery and so has the TV show starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. The hit Hulu series just wrapped another twisty and fun rollout and there’s a lot to unpack here.

I remember we were shooting an episode — it was the hallway scene with Selena — and one of the crew members was hanging out with us, and he was like, “Selena, do you know who the killer is?” and he kind of looked at me because I knew that he knew that it was me. I don’t know if I had to sign an NDA, and I don’t think they had the crew sign an NDA. She was like, “No, I have no idea,” and everybody was winking at me and egging her on, but she had nothing. In Episode 4 when I’m the person in the suit, I’m not credited in that episode so that has to be a special negotiation. I wouldn’t want to [reveal them] under the rare chance that they happen to bring them to life. But that day on set I remember coming down [and] the whole crew was like, “Oh my God.” So they all knew at that point, but they didn’t tell the cast members so it felt like I had a little secret with the crew. Even just being in the suit in the passageways was horrifying to imagine. I was told I was going to be in Season 2. But it was really weird because I got to set and I realized that nobody else knew. I did not think I would be a bad guy, so it was a real surprise to have such an integral part in Season 2. I was excited because it seemed like they were setting [me] up to have something in Season 2. Verson, who spoke to IndieWire via phone before the finale aired, thinks you might have figured out it was her way back in Episode 4 of this season, when Lucy (Zoe Margaret Colletti) revealed encountering the killer in the Arconia’s passageways.

But then in Episode 6, we learned that Alice got close to Mabel not because she was the murderer, but because she wanted to learn more about the notorious “Bloody Mabel,” the subject of her latest art installation. “I would be annoyed, too, but we were looking for this beat — a moment between Jonathan and Howard to sort of separate them and go, ‘Oh no,’ and I also wanted to remind people of [the killer’s] sneeze [from Episode 4] in that moment, before we got to the finale. “It’s not quite a red herring,” the EP argues, “but a moment that’s, like, ‘Hey, she’s lying about something.'” So, are we to infer it was Savage Sr.’s efforts to protect his mistress that landed him in the back of that cop car? “We like our loose ends,” the EP says with a wink. In Season 1, Episode 3, Oliver returned to his apartment to find that his beloved bulldog had ingested a toxic substance.

The MCU's Ant-Man actor had a surprising cameo in Only Murders in the Building's season 2 finale, but will Paul Rudd return for more in season 3?

This makes it likely that Paul Rudd might return for Only Murders in the Building season 3 so that Ben Glenroy may comment on the events leading up to his death. [Only Murders in the Building season 2](https://screenrant.com/only-murders-building-season-2-news-updates-story-details/) introduce Paul Rudd as an actor named Ben Glenroy, who is famous enough to make Oliver Putnam's jaw drop when he is offered a chance to work with him in a new Broadway show. This raises the question of how extensive Rudd's presence in Only Murders in the Building season 3 will be.
Only Murders in the Building season 2 had plenty of surprises for audiences. What will the trio (and Paul Rudd!) get into in season 3?
Knowing that the show has a year’s worth of story that it can play with to fit into season three (it’s happening, and This was certainly the case with Only Murders In the Building, and while it may have felt like it was juggling too many balls sometimes, it eventually stuck the landing, catching everything in the air for a big finish. It was easy to forget some of the earlier twists in the season. It was a long story with a few critical underlying elements that tied together our main trio, Tina Fey’s terrific true-crime-podcasting Cinda Canning, and the mystery of Rose Cooper (played with glamor and skill by the wondrous Shirley MacLaine). Speaking of which, the C-story, or maybe a congruent B-story to Oliver’s B-story, about what makes someone a father to another, was treated with such care and patience that the final moments of resolution felt earned and essential. It had bits of unexpected twists, a killer reveal, and lots of great acting -- from within the show itself and the killer reveal party.

She has, over the last two seasons, been able to sort of take that shawl of heaviness off of her a bit," he told TVLine. In the Only Murders in the Building season 2 finale, Mabel figures out that Bunny's killer is Poppy White, a.k.a Becky Butler (with an assist from Detective Kreps). The idea of commitment making you crazy." But then again, it didn't happen in the Arconia. Only Murders in the Building made an unlikely team out of a retired actor, a failed Broadway director and an aimless young woman. It’s his Broadway return, and that tethers out for all of them into a question of success — at what cost?" When the curtain rises, Ben begins a monologue — only to cough up blood and collapse. Next, the trio worked to clear their names as suspects in the death of building board president Bunny Folger. Normally, we'd chalk it up to murder, considering the show's title. Poppy wanted Cinda's next podcast to investigate the missing artist Rose Cooper but once again needed a murder to make her pitch juicier. Season 2 premiered June 28, 2022 and ended on Aug. The true crime-sendup series will return with the main trio — played by Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez — once again embroiled in a murder mystery.

The neighbourhood has been disappearing from our screens for some time now, with stories being presumptively set inside boxed-in realities that all of us, quite sadly, have come to embody. In the first season it was Sting; in the second, it is Amy Schumer, underlining perhaps the elusiveness of the snooty outsider. The age of streaming has lent itself to insular lives echoed by the near absence of the community. One of the most interesting segues in both seasons is the placement of an illustrious star amidst a ragtag bunch of uncivil tenants. Bunny, the victim in this second season, is the president of the resident's committee, but also someone, as it is gradually revealed, one with a history inseparable from that of the building itself. The series is also an intuitively classless view of society. While the first season concealed a lot about the interchange of love, affection and secrets within The Arconia, the second season travels back in time. In the finale, he outperforms everyone with a confession that he always wanted to be an actor. In a scene from the show, he sombrely recalls his relationship with Bunny. [Only Murders in the Building](https://www.news9live.com/entertainment/decoding-the-art-at-the-heart-of-only-murders-in-the-building-season-2-on-disney-hotstar-selena-gomez-steve-martin-show-191531), the show's suspects, its many twisty curbs manifest within the walls of a building waiting to be torn down. From secret passageways to hairy love affairs, the second season revels in the details of stories that have, over the course of the last decade or so, disappeared from television and entertainment all together. But what this remarkable show has also accomplished is reestablish the community, the neighbourhood as a setting for some our most fascinating stories.

I think that's somewhere where Poppy is and I don't think that it is necessary. As I said before, being a woman in Hollywood I think it is important to lift each other up and be supportive of your fellow actors and know that we all rise together.Your character aka Becky Butler plays a big part in this series, especially when things take a surprise turn in episode 9. It is important to learn, but I don't think you have to sacrifice yourself for learning. I come from a theatre background, and I feel that in a theatre, there is this idea that you have to pay your dues by working for free or being an intern and not being treated very well. I am just sad that I probably won't be in it. I would love for girls and women to take that to heart and realise that we lift each other up and that we can make the world better.You share most of your screen time with Tina Fey and Selena Gomez, what was it like working with the two?Adina: I think that if Cinda had been nicer to her, or if Mable had reached out earlier to her, or if someone in Poppy's past had been kinder to her, she wouldn't have ended up the way she did. She has a little wounded bird inside of her and I think that we can all relate to her and that inner child.You are a new mum, congratulations. Tina is so wonderful and so good at what she does, she makes it look so easy. These were a couple of different lines that they would then decide which were the funniest. Adina Verson, who plays an integral part in this murder mystery, opened up to ETimes about her character, the message she hopes women decode, and her time on set with .Adina Verson, you play Poppy aka Becky Butler in Only Murders in the Building, she is every employee ever.
The episode began with Poppy/Becky Butler talking about her life. It seemed rather troubled with her living with her dismissive father.
All in all, Charles isn’t the killer and his lines can be explained as simply staying in character in the theater. As a few people gathered around Rudd, blood oozed out of his mouth, Charles looked stunned, and Mabel, who was in the audience, stood up in shock. Season two was about Charles Sr, Lucy, and the painting. They took Poppy away to signal the end of the murders in that building. Later, the network permitted Charles to get out of the wheelchair and his dementia was in remission on Uncle Brazzos. The episode lived up to expectations, with psychology and theater coming to the fore in a magnificent way. They put the dots together, learning that Poppy tried to get the painting from Bunny Folger. That night, the podcast hosts organized a killer reveal party featuring the likes of Marv, Howard, Uma, Ursula, Jonathan, and Lester. We then went back to The Arconia where the trio discussed methods to draw a confession out of Cinda Canning. When Cinda said Mabel deserves a podcast, Poppy snapped and questioned whether she didn’t get one just because of her looks. Mabel said she realized what “14 savage” is and got a call from Detective Williams, who found a DNA sample on the knife. She floated the Becky Butler podcast (All is Not OK in Oklahoma) and requested a job.
Despite solving another murder case at the Arconia, Mabel, Charles, and Oliver still have work to do as the season 2 finale ended on another cliffhanger, ...
The big question in every season of Only Murders in the Building is who the secret murderer is. But most of all, fans want to know who killed him, which will be a big mystery in the new season. Whoever it is, fans are excited for a new season and plenty more whodunit investigative action from the hilariously mismatched trio. While Charles revealed to Ben that he knew what the young actor did, it seemed that Charles being aware of this was news to Ben. Fans were excited and shocked to see him as a young actor in a Broadway play opposite Charles. But there are still holes in terms of what happened with other stories and if the trio remained as close as they were before or just met in passing at the Arconia and for special occasions like that one. One of the most chilling lines in the final moments was when Charles, wearing a long trench coat and hat, and Ben, also in character for the play wearing a similar outfit, had a quick chat on stage. It would be tough for the couple to last long-term unless Howard gets rid of his cat, which puts him in a tough spot. Clearly, both Oliver and Charles were able to revive their careers, thanks to the notoriety of solving a second murder. Howard even offered to send his cat to live with a co-worker for a while, a major sign that the character was serious about giving this relationship a shot. With Poppy’s arrest after admitting to the crime of killing Bunny, fans wonder if she might return just as Jan, the murderer from season 1, via short cameos. Fans will likely be talking and theorizing up until the release of season 3, which has already been confirmed.
