"You have to look back at the first season to see what did people like? We don't really know, we're doing it for the first time and I would have to say it's this compelling story with these interludes of personal development and conversations between us and little side trips. But, I always believe that the mystery and the story are really the most important thing and they really kept going solid on that," Martin said.

Cara Delevingne talks joining cast of 'Only Murders in the Building'
"I've known her since I was 15," Gomez said. "So it was really comfortable and really fun because it doesn't feel like work when you are hanging out with one of your best friends."
"She's one of those people who has immediate intimacy," Short said. "You spend five minutes with her and you feel like you've known her a long time."
While it can be intimidating to join such a tight-knit cast with one extremely successful season under their belt, Delevingne said she hit the ground running.
"It was when I think about it back then, but as soon as I got the role I was just so blown away, and grateful, and happy that there was no time to feel intimidated," she said. "They were all so welcoming and so kind!"
