‘Only Murders’ Songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul Go for EGOT With ‘Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It?’ at Emmys (EXCLUSIVE)
Will Benj Pasek and Justin Paul achieve EGOT status for "Only Murders in the Building" for Emmys' original song?
If they are nominated and win at the September ceremony, Pasek and Paul will become the 20th and 21st EGOT recipients, joining the ranks of legends Richard Rodgers, Marvin Hamlisch and Elton John. The song, co-written with celebrated composers Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, is performed by Steve Martin in the show’s eighth episode, “Sitzprobe,” helmed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini. Alongside Wittman, who needs an Oscar and Emmy, the pair won their Grammys together for the Broadway production of “Hairspray” in 2003 and earlier this year for the Tony-winning “Some Like It Hot” for best musical theater album.
