Cast Of Only Murders In The Building Season 1

Alright, picture this: you’re stuck in your apartment building, maybe your Wi-Fi's down (ugh, the horror!), and suddenly, BAM! Murder! Now, who you gonna call? Not Ghostbusters, honey. You need the cast of Only Murders in the Building Season 1!

The Dream Team of Amateur Sleuths

Steve Martin as Charles-Haden Savage: The Semi-Retired TV Star

First up, we've got Steve Martin, playing Charles-Haden Savage. Think washed-up TV detective, kind of like if your favorite childhood show got canceled way too early. Charles is that guy in the building who's clearly seen better days, but still thinks he’s got that star power (and maybe he does!).

He's got a mysterious past, a knack for awkward silences, and a surprising amount of charm.

Basically, he's the dad you wish you had, if your dad solved murders for a hobby.

Martin Short as Oliver Putnam: The Flamboyant Broadway Director (Kind Of)

Next, the legendary Martin Short graces us with his presence as Oliver Putnam. He's a Broadway director... well, was a Broadway director. Let's just say his last show didn't exactly win a Tony.

Think of him as the flamboyant uncle who always has a get-rich-quick scheme and wears scarves indoors. Oliver brings the drama (both on and off the stage), a mountain of debt, and an endless supply of snacks to the investigation.

Seriously, where does he keep all that dip?

Selena Gomez as Mabel Mora: The Mysterious Young Artist

Rounding out our trio, we have the amazing Selena Gomez as Mabel Mora. She’s the cool, mysterious young artist who lives in her aunt’s apartment. Mabel's got secrets, a killer sense of style, and a surprisingly dark past.

She's the relatable voice of reason amongst the chaos and is a master of deadpan delivery. Plus, she knows her way around a good beanie, which is crucial for any self-respecting amateur sleuth.

Supporting Players Who Steal the Show

But wait, there's more! The Arconia building is teeming with quirky characters who add so much flavor to the mystery.

Amy Ryan as Jan: The Bassoonist with a Secret

Amy Ryan absolutely slays as Jan, Charles's love interest and a… bassoon player. Yes, you read that right. She's charming, supportive, and seems genuinely interested in Charles. But let’s be real, in a murder mystery, *everyone* is a suspect, right?

Nathan Lane as Teddy Dimas: The Deli King with Connections

And then there's Nathan Lane as Teddy Dimas, the deli king. He's wealthy, powerful, and definitely has some shady dealings going on. You know the guy, probably wears expensive suits and makes you feel a little intimidated when he order his sandwich at the deli.

Let's just say his connection to the story is far more than just a tasty pastrami.

James Caverly as Theo Dimas: The Silent Partner

Last but not least, James Caverly delivers a powerful performance as Theo Dimas, Teddy's deaf son. He communicates mostly through sign language and adds a layer of complexity and empathy to the story. He really shines when showcasing the dynamic between him and his father.

The brilliance of Only Murders in the Building isn’t just the clever plot. It's the chemistry between this incredible cast. They make you laugh, they make you gasp, and they make you feel like you're right there with them, solving the mystery (and maybe ordering a sandwich from Dimas Deli).

So grab your magnifying glass, your comfiest blanket, and prepare to become obsessed with this hilarious and heartwarming whodunit!
