Personal Connection Fuels John Hoffman and His Storytelling
One of the defining aspects of Only Murders in the Building is its tonal balance—melding comedy, mystery, and heartfelt emotional depth. Hoffman attributes this to the chemistry of the show’s trio: Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez.
This balance is deeply personal for Hoffman. He revealed how a tragic personal experience shaped the emotional core of the show. A year before starting the project, Hoffman spent months investigating the death of his childhood best friend, who had been found dead in mysterious circumstances.
