Only Murders in the Building Stars Pitch Marvel Actors for Future Cameos

The stars of Only Murders in the Building shared which Marvel actors they’d like to see on their show. The fourth season of the Hulu original series debuts this week, and takes the gang of Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short), and Mabel (Selena Gomez) out west to Los Angeles to solve another murder mystery that’s tied to the events of last season. Only Murders in the Building is known for having several A-list actors join from season to season, like Tina Fey, Meryl Streep, and Paul Rudd, with Season 4 bringing Eva Longoria, Eugene Levy, and Zach Galifianakis portraying our main trio in an Only Murders movie. But when it comes to actors who have taken on roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the cast highlights their top two choices for future appearances.

GamesRadar spoke to Only Murders in the Building stars Selena Gomez, Steve Martin, and Martin Short ahead of the Season 4 premiere. The site asked which celebrity they would ike to see appear who hasn’t shown up yet, and their two choices were actors who have also appeared in the MCU.

After Short said  “there’s a lot of wonderful actors” he’d like to see on Only Murders in the Building, Martin chimed in with “Cate Blanchett.” His co-stars quickly agreed, with Short adding how much he “loves” the Hela actress. Short then added Ryan Reynolds to the list,with Martin replying “that would be great.” Reynolds is currently the star of Deadpool & Wolverine, which is still dominating the global box office.
