    Selena Gomez feels "comfortable" playing Mabel Mora on 'Only Murders in the Building'

    The 32-year-old actress has reprised the role of Mabel for season four of the hit TV series, and Selena has observed that Mable has been on a "constant evolution" since the show began in 2021


    The brunette beauty - who stars on the show alongside Martin Short and Steve Martin - told 'Extra': "I think that Mabel has been on a constant evolution throughout the series, trying to find a home, trying to find where she belongs. At the same time knowing what she wants to do.

    "Honestly, I love being able to play a character that I've moulded into what I feel comfortable with. I'm just glad that it is received well."

    Despite her success, Selena previously revealed that she hasn't "even scratched the surface" of her acting ambitions.

    She told The Hollywood Reporter: "Acting has, and will always be, my heart.

    "There's so much that I want to do and that I haven't even scratched the surface of, and it's exciting to me."

    Selena was recently nominated for an Emmy Award for 'Only Murders in the Building', and she was quickly congratulated by her co-stars.

    The actress shared: "I received flowers from [Martin and Steve].

    "I'm in LA, Marty's always all over the world, and Steve is in New York. So, obviously, we can't be together, but we'll celebrate when we get back together again. But it was crazy."

    Selena has been nominated for the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series gong at the Emmys, and regardless of whether she wins the accolade or not, she already feels like a winner.

    Selena explained: "I was just honoured to be on such a show that was recognised.

    "I feel so lucky, because there are so many great shows, and to even be considered, to have an opportunity like this, is such an honour.

    "In my mind, I feel like I already won."
