“It’s always difficult to balance [everything] because you’re in a serious crime story, and then you wonder how big the comedy can get,” Steve told the outlet. “And hopefully the editors and director guide you to the right degree of performance.”

Selena agreed, adding that the writers and producers “a playground to just go and be who we want to be,” and noting that the cast feels “lucky” to have that kind of control.

She went on to say that she was “pleasantly shocked” by the reveal of the killer’s identity.

This season also finds Oliver’s obsession with dips deepening, used as a way to explore Martin Short‘s character’s origin story.

Martin noted that the character trait was “tied to Oliver’s difficult financial days” and added that he didn’t “care about dips, personally,” often using “oatmeal or something fake” while filming.

Oppositely, Selena felt a deeper her connection to her character, whose background gets fleshed out over the season.

“I can’t help but maybe relate to [Mabel] in a way where I do feel a deep connection to my family and I had to move away from my family to do work,” she said.

Only Murders in the Building Season 2 will premiere on Hulu June 28, with weekly episodes set to air after. Check out the latest trailer here!
