Hulu sets a date for Only Murders In the Building season 2

Does it seem like only yesterday that Hulu premiered Only Murders in the Building? Truthfully, it’s been less than a year since the series premiere. But fans of the true-crime comedy won’t have to wait long for new episodes. Hulu has announced that Only Murders in the Building season 2 will premiere on June 28.

Hulu made the announcement with a new video starring the show’s three main cast members: Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. In the clips below, the cast can’t seem to keep a straight face while shooting the promo … multiple times.

The synopsis for the new season reveals that Charles-Haden Savage (Martin), Oliver Putnam (Short), and Mabel Mora (Selena Gomez) are in big trouble this year. The amateur sleuths turned true crime podcasters have been implicated in a murder themselves. And they won’t be the only podcast team searching for answers.

“Following the shocking death of Arconia Board President Bunny Folger, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel race to unmask her killer. However, three (unfortunate) complications ensue — the trio is publicly implicated in Bunny’s homicide, they are now the subjects of a competing podcast, and they have to deal with a bunch of New York neighbors who all think they committed murder.”

Cara Delevingne is joining the cast this season as a woman named Alice, while Michael Rapaport will portray Detective Kreps, the man in charge of solving Bunny’s murder.

Martin co-created Only Murders in the Building with John Hoffman. They also executive produce the series alongside Short, Gomez, Dan Fogelman, and Jess Rosenthal.

Where to watch It’s a Wonderful Life
James Stewart and Donna Reed in It's a Wonderful Life.

If ever there was a movie that could make generations cry with tears of happiness, it's the Frank Capra holiday classic It's a Wonderful Life. Films like A Christmas Story and A Charlie Brown Christmas are also popular Christmas movies, but It's a Wonderful Life is on another level. This is one of the greatest movies ever made, and it's a genuinely moving story about George Bailey, as played by Hollywood icon Jimmy Stewart.

It's a Wonderful Life arrived in theaters in 1946, just a year after World War II ended. And for most of the movie, it paints a pretty bleak picture of George's life. He had dreams and ambitions beyond his small town, but George sacrificed them all for the sake of his family's Building and Loan business, and for the town of Bedford Falls. On Christmas Eve in 1945, George faces financial ruin and likely prison time through no fault of his own. That's when an angel named Clarence (Henry Travers) intervenes and prevents George from committing suicide by showing him a world where he had never been born at all.

Everybody loves Squid Game. When it first debuted on Netflix during the pandemic in 2021, the world couldn't get enough of the South Korean battle royale series. Created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, the show was about a deadly competition that drew hundreds of players -- some violent, some greedy, all desperate -- to compete for 45.6 billion won, or around $38 million. The competitors would compete in a series of children's games such as Red Light, Green Light, with success advancing them to the next level and failure resulting in certain death.
