Eva Longoria, best known for her roles in Desperate Housewives and The Young and the Restless, is set to join the cast of Only Murders in the Building for its upcoming fourth season.
Details regarding her character and the plot of the new season have been kept under wraps. However, her character is expected to play a crucial role in the twists and turns of the season’s investigation.
Only Murders in the Building is an American comedy-mystery television series created by Steve Martin and John Hoffman. The show features Selena Gomez, Steve Martin, and Martin Short in key roles.
The season three finale concluded with a shocking cliffhanger. Sazz Pataki (Jane Lynch), Charles’ stunt double from his days in the Brazzos series, was shot in the chest in his apartment. The assailant, mistaking Sazz for Charles, remains unidentified. This unexpected turn sets the stage for the central mystery of season four.
Meryl Streep, who was introduced in season three, is also set to reprise her role as Loretta Durkin. Eva Longoria is the latest addition to the cast, following Molly Shannon. The latter is set to portray a businesswoman from LA who becomes involved in the investigation.
The Emmy-nominated show has received mostly positive reviews from fans and has become one of the most-watched shows in recent years.
Eva Longoria’s upcoming projects include Paola Santiago and the River of Tears and a TV adaptation of Isabel Allende’s best-selling novel, The House of the Spirits.
