‘Only Murders in the Building’ Season 3: Selena Gomez Confirms Release Date (Plus, We Have a New Trailer & Cast Deets)

It’s officially happening: Only Murders in the Building has a third season on the way. This means we’ll soon see our favorite crime-solving cast members—Charles-Haden Savage (Steve Martin), Oliver Putnam (Martin Short) and Mabel Mora (Selena Gomez)—back for more adventures, including a potential wedding.

Now, the big question is: When is season three expected to premiere? Well, fans will be happy to know the third season will be coming out *very* soon. In a post, Gomez revealed that the show will be back on August 8, 2023. Plus, Hulu just released a brand-new trailer teasing what’s to come.

Here’s everything we know about Only Murders in the Building season three so far.

As you can see in the video above, our favorite podcasters will be returning for season three. In the clip, the trio seems to be communicating in a personal group chat. Charles (Martin) proceeds to ask the viewers about the second season of Only Murders in the Building, all while typing the message and sending a voice memo.

Then, Mabel (Gomez) announces some news fans would be happy to hear. “Guess what?” she says. “All of our favorite characters will be returning for Season 3!” Of course, Oliver is excited like the rest of us.

Several of the other Arconia residents and frequenters may come back to reprise their roles in the new season, including Jackie Hoffman (Uma Heller), Michael Cyril Creighton (Howard Morris), Da'Vine Joy Randolph (Detective Williams), Nathan Lane (Teddy Dimas), James Caverly (Theo Dimas) and Adriane Lenox (Roberta).

Paul Rudd will join the cast, but he’s technically not a newcomer because he appeared in the season 2 finale. In October 2022, Deadline also announced that Grey’s Anatomy alum Jesse Williams will star in the third installment. He will play a “documentarian with a particular interest in the case.”

According to Deadline, Ashley Park (Emily in Paris) will also join the cast as a character named Kimber, who loves Broadway.

Though it has not been confirmed yet, we hope to see the return of some surprise guest stars like Amy Schumer, Jane Lynch, Tina Fey, Shirley MacLaine, Michael Rappaport, Andrea Martin, Sting, Mark Consuelos and more.

Guess what, Only Murders in the Building fans? The third season is set to premiere this summer! In a new update shared on Instagram, Selena Gomez posted a photo of herself sitting next to her two castmates, Martin and Short. As for the caption, the singer and actress not-so-subtly revealed the official premiere date for the upcoming installment, NBD.

“Some of my favorite people.. Only Murders In the Building season 3 is coming august 8th!!!! @hulu @onlymurdershulu,” she wrote in the caption.

Be sure to mark your calendars.

In January 2023, fans learned that Streep is joining the cast. It all started when Gomez posted a video on social media featuring the cast—including Streep—hanging out on the set of season 3.

Then, during the 2023 Oscars, Hulu debuted another trailer featuring a first glimpse of Streep in OMITB. The clip showed a brief montage and teased a “surprise” before cutting to Streep sitting at a table read. “Oh, my god! It’s me,” she said.

Why yes, it has! It appears that the cast and crew have already finished filming. Several months ago on Instagram, Gomez shared a huge update on the third season.

In a photo posted on her personal profile, the actress is standing right next to Meryl Streep and they are both smiling from ear to ear. The caption read, “Well we wrapped season 3 of @onlymurdershulu.”

Gomez continued, “I’m not sure I have enough words to explain just how beautiful this season has been. It has been deliriously hilarious, challenging and for me, an absolute dream. I’ll post more soon. But I’ll I leave it with the woman I adore, look up to and love.”

That’s the question that’s on everyone’s mind. It all started when Gomez shared a behind-the-scenes photo on Twitter, featuring herself wearing a wedding dress on the set of Only Murders in the Building season 3. She wrote, “I have no caption. Just a regular day at work. @onlymurdershulu.”

The new trailer which was just released introduces viewers to Streep’s character, Loretta Durkin, who has major beef with the latest victim. The story centers around a Broadway show that was supposed to have a spectacular opening night, but instead, someone was killed. Can Oliver, Charles and Mabel (who is in a wedding dress again) solve the case?
