The man was secured to a hospital bed, sporting spectacles with brown rims and connected to a breathing machine. As per Hulu’s synopsis, the show centers around ‘three individuals who bond over their fascination with true crime and are suddenly immersed in one.’ Selena Gomez, who portrays Mabel, not only stars in the production but also serves as an executive producer. This marks her debut as a recurring character on the small screen since her tenure on Disney’s Wizards of Waverly Place. Martin teamed up with John Hoffman to produce the ten-episode show available for streaming.

In a recent interview with Vogue, Martin praised the mature and nuanced performance of Gomez, noting her ability to tone down when necessary. The comedian also highlighted the compatibility of their acting styles, describing Gomez’s performance as nicely understated yet passionate, matching his and Short’s comedic approaches in past movies like Three Amigos! and Father of the Bride. Martin noted that although he and Short are more exuberant, Gomez serves as a strong and reliable foundation in their trio. Initially unsure if she would fit in with their dynamic, Martin now refers to them as the Three Musketeers.

Martin shared his excitement about the addition of Gomez to their project, stating that when they received a list of potential candidates, her name stood out as an obvious choice. He expressed his happiness in having her on board.
