And I would like to see [Mabel] kind of sophisticate a little bit more after going through what she has walked through.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Martin, who co-created the show with screenwriter John Hoffman, quips, \u201cI think we\u2019re all interested in a second season if it were there. Selena\u2019s character has the most opportunity for growth, and Marty and my characters have the most opportunity for death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Only Murders in the Building marks the first regular television role for Martin, who shot to stardom in the 1970s. It\u2019s also a triumphant return to the small screen for Gomez after her stint on the Disney Channel\u2019s Wizards of Waverley Place ended in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Gomez recently joked that she \u201csigned her life away\u201d to Disney at a young age, a comment that was taken seriously by several news outlets, but she later <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/comedy\/selena-gomez-proud-disney-work-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">cleared up the confusion in a chat with RadioTimes.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Only Murders in the Building kicks off this month with a two-episode launch, before shifting to the weekly release pattern that has proven so effective for fellow Disney Plus originals <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/loki-season-2-release-date\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Loki<\/a> and <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/the-mandalorian-season-3-release-date-disney-plus\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">The Mandalorian<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The first two episodes of Only Murders in the Building are streaming now on Disney Plus. <a href=\"\/\/disneyplus.bn5x.net\/c\/1236178\/564546\/9358?subId1=radiotimes-0&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2Fhome&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;nofollow&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><b>Sign up to Disney Plus for \u00a37.99 a month or \u00a379.90 a year now<\/b><\/a>.
