"Secrets Are the Fun Part": See Selena Gomez Stir Up Trouble in a New True-Crime Comedy Series

"Do I want to break into a dead guy's apartment and go through all his sh*t? Sounds like an afternoon," Selena Gomez [1] (Mabel Mora) says when neighbours Steve Martin [2] (Charles) and Martin Short (Oliver) come knocking on her door in the new Only Murders in the Building [3] trailer. A comedy and murder mystery all in one, the Hulu series follows the lives of three true crime-obsessed [4] strangers who find themselves wrapped up in a real-life murder case after a gruesome death occurs inside their Upper West Side apartment complex.

Determined to document the case, the three create a podcast and work to unravel the dark secrets of their apartment building, where a killer may be lurking right around the corner. "Sometimes it's easier to figure out someone else's secret than it is to deal with your own," Short's character says in a voiceover as he retrieves a letter from his front door that reads, "End the podcast or I end you."

In addition to taking intense style notes on Gomez's vibrant '70s-inspired looks [5], we are already jotting down clues to help solve the looming mystery. "Everybody is a suspect," Gomez captioned the trailer on Twitter. Martin also hopped on Twitter to promote the teaser trailer, joking, "This is more than a 30-second teaser trailer for Only Murders in the Building. It's the entire episode (we lost a lot in editing)." At 30 seconds long, the trailer doesn't even give away enough to win a game of Clue, but we will dilligently be gathering any and all evidence we can find as we eagerly await the series premiere on Aug. 31.
