Martin Short Joins ‘Grimsburg’ Season 2

The comedy legend will voice the recurring role of Otis Volcanowitz, Grumsburg’s newest - and youngest - detective in FOX’s animated comedy series starring and executive produced by Jon Hamm.

Grimsburg, FOX’s animated comedy starring and executive produced by Jon Hamm, has added Martin Short (Only Murders in the Building) for Season 2 in the recurring role of Otis Volcanowitz.

Otis is Grimsburg’s newest (and youngest) detective, and is out to prove that it’s his skills that got him this job and not nepotism. The series also stars Hamm as detective Marvin Flute; Erinn Hayes as Harmony Flute; Rachel Dratch as Stan Flute; Alan Tudyk as Dr. Rufis Pentos and Mr. Flesh; Kevin Michael Richardson as detective Greg Summers; and Greg Chun as Lieutenant John Kang.

The series centers on Marvin Flute, who may be the greatest detective ever to catch a cannibal clown and correctly identify a mid-century modern armoire. But there’s one mystery he still can’t crack - himself. To do that he must return to Grimsburg, a town where everyone has a secret or three, and redeem himself in the eyes of his fellow detectives, his ferocious ex-wife, and his lovably unstable son.

Grimsburg is produced by FOX Entertainment’s Bento Box Entertainment. Series creators Catlan McClelland and Matthew Schlissel also co-executive produce, alongside showrunner Chadd Gindin; Gail Berman and Hend Baghdady of The Jackal Group; and Connie Tavel.

Grimsburg Season 2 is coming soon to FOX, with each episode available the next day on Hulu.
