New clues are emerging about the future of Only Murders in the Building, one of television’s most beloved mystery comedies. The hit series, created by Steve Martin and John Hoffman, is reportedly planning to set its sixth season in London.
The show, long associated with New York City and its iconic Arconia building, first expanded its world in Season 4, when the trio, Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez, traveled to Hollywood for a film adaptation of their true-crime podcast. That season marked the first time the story ventured beyond the Arconia.
Now, Only Murders in the Building is expected to take an even bolder step, moving the story outside the United States. The new season is reportedly set to unfold in London, bringing a fresh atmosphere and a distinctly British flavor to the series.
While Hulu has yet to officially renew Only Murders in the Building for Season 6, an announcement is expected soon, likely following the Season 5 finale, which premiered on October 27.
In the most recent season, the future of the Arconia was left uncertain after Renée Zellweger’s character, the ultra-wealthy Camila White, bought most of the building with plans to transform it into New York’s first casino. As a result, the move to London could be a natural continuation of the story, with the trio possibly forced to relocate abroad.
Casting details for Season 6 remain under wraps, and no release date has been confirmed.
