Pack Your Bags! Only Murder in the Building Season 6 is Officially Heading to London
May 27, 2026
Hey there, Arconia obsessives! Grab your favorite cozy trench coat, dim the lights, and pour yourself a cup of tea (or whatever chaotic beverage Oliver Putnam is drinking today), because we have some absolutely massive news. If you are anything like the pop-culture-obsessed team here at D-Muse Magz, you are probably still completely reeling from that wild, jaw-dropping Season 5 finale.
The hit series wrapped up its fifth chapter this past October, but the momentum is nowhere near slowing down. In fact, the show is completely dominating the current awards season, recently locking in major Golden Globe nominations for Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy. Plus, our ultimate multi-hyphenate muse Selena Gomez, alongside comedy legends Steve Martin and Martin Short, all scored well-deserved best performance nods.
But while the trophies are great, what we really care about is the drama. The final episode left us screaming at our screens with the highly suspicious death of Cinda Canning, setting up a massive cliffhanger that practically begs for a deep-dive investigation. Luckily, we won’t have to wonder about the future of our favorite true-crime podcasters for long.
Here is absolutely everything we know so far about the upcoming chapter of Only Murder in the Building.
Has Only Murder in the Building Been Renewed for Season 6?
The short answer? Yes, absolutely! The official green light came down almost immediately after the explosive Season 5 finale premiered, giving fans the ultimate sigh of relief. But hold onto your hats, because things are going to look a little different next time around. According to reports from The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming season is officially switching up its iconic New York City backdrop and taking the drama across the pond to London!
This massive location shift actually makes total sense if you caught the subtle clues hidden in the final moments of Season 5. Before the credits rolled, our favorite crime-solving trio was seen listening to a brand-new Cinda Canning podcast episode that was explicitly set in the United Kingdom. Combine that British setting with her sudden, mysterious demise, and it looks like Mabel, Charles, and Oliver have the perfect excuse to board a flight to the U.K. to clear up the mystery.
The Cast is Just as Obsessed as We Are
One of the reasons Only Murder in the Building feels so incredibly special to fans is just how much the main cast genuinely adores working on it. Our girl Selena Gomez has openly shared her dreams for the show’s longevity, proving she is just as attached to Mabel Mora’s iconic, high-fashion wardrobe and dry wit as we are.
“I really hope that I can just keep evolving Mabel as I get older, because I want to do this for a long time,” Selena revealed in a heartwarming interview back in September 2025.
Steve Martin is also feeling incredibly blessed and optimistic about the show’s incredible journey. Reflecting on the project, he shared a beautifully grounded perspective on the show’s lifespan:
“We believe we’re doing another season. We think so. But you have to live season by season. And even if it was canceled tomorrow, we would have to say, ‘We had a great, great run. We loved what we were doing. It was a great way to spend five, six years.’”
Spotted: Filming is Officially Underway in the U.K.!
Get ready, because the countdown to the new episodes has officially started. In May 2026, Selena Gomez practically broke the internet when she confirmed that cameras are officially rolling on the set.
Taking to her Instagram Story, Selena reposted a super cute photo originally shared by the show’s official account. The photo featured her alongside her legendary co-stars hanging out together on location in London. The caption that sent the fandom into an absolute frenzy? A simple but thrilling: “Season 6 🇬🇧 Day 1!” Knowing that the cast is currently walking the historic streets of London means we can definitely expect some incredible British-inspired street style from Mabel very soon. London chic, here we come!
How Many Episodes Can We Expect?
If you are worried that the international move might shorten the season, you can officially breathe a sigh of relief. It has been confirmed that Season 6 will follow the exact same structure as its highly successful predecessors.
- Total Episodes: 10 action-packed episodes
- Format: Weekly releases filled with red herrings, fashion inspiration, and witty banter
- Setting: Primarily London, U.K.
Ten episodes give the writers the perfect amount of time to weave a complex, hilarious, and deeply thrilling murder mystery without dragging the plot out.
Who is Joining the Season 6 Cast?
Naturally, the core powerhouse trio of Selena Gomez, Steve Martin, and Martin Short are locked in and ready to bring their unmatched chemistry back to our screens. Their multi-generational friendship remains the literal beating heart of the entire show.

However, the big question mark right now surrounds the supporting cast. As seasoned fans know, this show boasts some of the most star-studded guest rosters in television history. Season 5 gave us incredible performances from Hollywood heavyweights like Renée Zellweger and Logan Lerman, while the hilarious Keegan-Michael Key was elevated to a recurring role that kept us laughing all season long.
As of right now, the production team is keeping details tightly under wraps regarding whether these specific characters will be making the trip to London. The same goes for fan-favorites like the legendary Meryl Streep and Oscar-winner Da’Vine Joy Randolph. We are keeping our fingers firmly crossed that we get at least a few surprise cameos from them as the London investigation unfolds!
Final Thoughts: The Ultimate Cozy Watch Continues
From its stellar red-carpet fashion moments to its viral social media theories, Only Murder in the Building has cemented itself as a modern cultural phenomenon. Moving the chaos from the Upper West Side to the historic, moody streets of London is the exact kind of creative shake-up that will keep this series feeling fresh, vibrant, and utterly unpredictable.
