In an interview with E! News, Steve Martin talked about working with Selena and said, "When we first met Selena, she was already self-possessed and dignified and sophisticated. So, if anything, we've just seen that creep up a little bit, as it should with maturity. But she was already there—a real person we admired and respected."
To this, Selena added, "It's just been a joy to have people I can look up to and just be reminded that life is good."
Showrunner John Hoffman earlier told The Hollywood Reporter, "I think the idea of what you create is a thing you put out to the world, and sometimes you can’t be prepared for the repercussions of what potentially the world does with your thing, and how they feel about it."
He added, "That’s a challenging line to walk, and sometimes you have to face it in that way. So, the podcast and everything else that’s happened, and what it all means, and what it could have been meaning all along. That’s a really interesting world to look at for these three who stepped in that way."
Meryl Streep, Eva Longoria, Eugene Levy, Kumail Nanjiani, Molly Shannon and Zach Galifianakis were also seen in the fourth season.
