Only Murders in the Building is carrying on with the tradition it has embraced since it became a Hulu hit by welcoming a bevy of stars ot the mix for the next season.

Instead of the American fanfare viewers have gotten used to, this time around the show is tapping into the talents of the U.K.’s biggest stars. Whether you’re a fan of British mysteries, Doctor Who, Bridgerton, or even Sherlock, Only Murders in the Building has you covered with its latest recruits.

As fans learned at the end of Season 5, this latest chapter follows Charles (Steve Martin), Mabel (Selena Gomez), and Oliver (Martin Short) across the pond to investigate the murder of Cinda Canning (Tina Fey), the podcaster who inspired them to get into the business back in Season 1.

Among the exciting additions to the large ensemble for the England-set chapter are two former Doctors, two former Bridgerton leading ladies, a Spice Girl, and many more TV and film icons like Oscar-winner Olivia Colman!

As we gear up for the show’s return this December, we’re rounding up all of the stars we know are joining the series so far, but stay tuned for any other potential additions as we’re sure the fan-favorite is likely to have some surprises up its sleeve.
