Only Murders in the Building Season 6 Heads to London
The acclaimed Disney+ comedy-drama “Only Murders in the Building” has officially been renewed for a sixth season, marking a significant departure from its established New York City setting. This Emmy-winning series, which first premiered in 2021 to widespread plaudits, stars Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez as an unlikely trio of true-crime podcasters. Their previous investigations have exclusively focused on the unsettling murder rate within their own iconic NYC apartment building, the Arconia, a premise central to the show’s title.
However, the upcoming sixth installment will see the beloved crime-solving protagonists — Oliver, Charles, and Mabel — venturing across the Atlantic to London for their next mysterious investigation. This exciting development was confirmed by Selena Gomez herself, who posted on Instagram, “Well, looks like our fam is going to London y’all.” The show has built a strong reputation for its engaging narratives and has attracted numerous high-profile guest stars, including Meryl Streep, Renée Zellweger, and Sting, throughout its five rapid-fire seasons.
While the exact details remain under wraps, including filming dates (anticipated for next year) and specific London locations, speculation suggests prominent landmarks and charming, picturesque spots reminiscent of “Thursday Murder Club-esque” settings might feature. Despite the show’s title implying a focus solely on murders within a single building, the article playfully hints that the change of scenery doesn’t preclude “a mysterious death or two right here in London,” suggesting the core premise might adapt or be creatively reinterpreted for the new international backdrop. This move promises a fresh dynamic for the popular series and its dedicated fanbase.
