Season 6 of 'Only Murders in the Building' Gets December Premiere and London Setting
The sixth season of 'Only Murders in the Building' will premiere on December 8 on Hulu and Disney+. The series moves to London, where the trio investigates the murder of Cinda Canning. New guest stars include Tina Fey, Olivia Colman, Meryl Streep, and David Tennant.
The sixth season shifts the action from New York to London, following the trio as they investigate the death of Cinda Canning, the podcast figure who inspired their own true-crime work. The premiere is set for December 8 across Hulu and Disney+ platforms, with the season introducing a fresh cast of eccentric British characters.
The guest lineup includes Tina Fey, Olivia Colman, Meryl Streep, David Tennant, Nicola Coughlan, and Martin Freeman. The series continues under co-creators Steve Martin and John Hoffman, with the main cast also serving as executive producers alongside Dan Fogelman and others.
This season's relocation to London could broaden the show's appeal to international audiences, particularly through Disney+'s global reach. The continued presence of high-profile guest stars may reinforce the trend of streaming series attracting A-list talent for limited arcs, potentially influencing how other platforms approach casting. For viewers, the shift in setting may refresh the formula while testing whether the show's core dynamic translates beyond its original New York identity.
