What has been said about Only Murders in the Building Season 6 potential?
Showrunner John Hoffman teased to TV Insider in September 2025, “I won’t say whether or not there will be a murder at the end of this season, but if there were, I think there’s an opportunity for more surprise that we will look to shake things up in a potential next go… Nothing is at its end.”
This was echoed by stars Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, and Martin Short when they spoke to Entertainment Tonight, “We do not know. We get asked, ‘How long do you guys want to do this?’ And I just go, ‘Well, you tell us?’” Martin said. “We like doing it, and it’s a wonderful job for us. We couldn’t say, ‘Well, let’s just do something else,’ and it be a situation that’s not as fun…”
“Hits are so rare,” Short chimed in. “They’re such flukes when all of the stars line up, and I think this is one of them. But we would do it as long as we felt the quality was [there].”

Who would star in Only Murders in the Building Season 6?
