Only Murders in the Building returns on December 8, 2026, on Disney+. The sixth season of this American comedy-drama mystery series will consist of ten episodes. For the first time, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel will venture outside New York to investigate in London.
Disney+ is rolling out this season under the title Only Murders in London. The case kicks off when Cinda Canning shows up at the trio’s doorstep and asks them to track down the person plotting an assassination. The three podcasters head to the British capital, where a new gallery of suspects awaits.
This shift lets the series anchor its mix of humor and sleuthing in the cradle of the “cozy crime” genre — a police fiction built on puzzles, tight-knit communities, and eccentric characters. Season 6 thus preserves the spirit of the police comedies that have accompanied the show since its inception, while temporarily moving away from the Arconia as the main backdrop.
Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez are reprising their roles as Charles, Oliver and Mabel. The cast also features Olivia Colman, Meryl Streep, David Tennant, Nicola Coughlan and Martin Freeman.
Created and written by Steve Martin and John Hoffman, Only Murders in the Building is produced by 20th Television. Honored at the Emmy Awards, the series has, since 2021, brought together three neighbors united by a shared obsession with crime, which they recount in their own podcast.
