Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez are back for the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building, premiering September 9 on Hulu.
The official trailer has just dropped for the season, offering a look at new cast members including Beanie Feldstein, Jermaine Fowler, Renée Zellweger, Christoph Waltz, Téa Leoni, Dianne Wiest, Keegan-Michael Key, and Logan Lerman. The trailer also reveals that the new season will explore New York City's mob scene while investigating the murder of doorman Lester, who was found dead in the season 4 finale.
Meryl Streep, Richard Kind, James Caverly, and Nathan Lane will also be back as guest stars this season. Season 4 received a total of seven nominations at the 2025 Emmys, including Best Comedy Series and Best Comedy Actor for Short.
Only Murders in the Building follows Charles, Oliver, and Mabel after an unexpected death occurs in (or around) their New York apartment building. The trio suspects murder and must employ their precise knowledge of true crime to investigate the truth. As they record a podcast of their own to document the case, the three unravel the complex secrets of the building which stretch back years.
In Season 3 of the show, the characters produced a Broadway musical. Directed by Short's Oliver Putnum, the in-universe production featured new songs by the likes of Broadway alums Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, and Sara Bareilles.
