The crime-solving trio of Only Murders in the Building is packing their bags and heading overseas. On Tuesday, Hulu announced that the hit series starring Selena Gomez, Martin Short, and Steve Martin was renewed for a sixth season, and that after five chapters in New York (plus a rendezvous in California for Season Four), the next mystery would unravel in London.

News of the renewal dropped just hours after Season Five premiered, and Gomez took to social media on Tuesday to celebrate. “Well, looks like our fam is going to London y’all,” Gomez wrote on Instagram Stories. “I want to thank our community and fans of @onlymurdershulu for allowing us to even have a season 6!” she continued in a different post with a photo of Martin and Short. “We are eternally grateful we can bring any of you any sort of joy. My deepest gratitude from Steve, Marty and myself.”

Like prior seasons, the next installment will reportedly feature 10 episodes. Since its debut, Only Murders in the Building has garnered 56 Emmy Award nominations and taken home seven wins. In addition to the starring trio, Michael Cyril Creighton, Meryl Streep, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Téa Leoni, Richard Kind, and Nathan Lane also returned for Season Five. The recently premiered chapter also saw Keegan-Michael Key, Beanie Feldstein, Dianne Wiest, and Jermaine Fowler join the ever-evolving cast.

Along with co-creators and writers Martin and John Hoffman, Season Five of the whodunnit series was produced by Short, Gomez, Dan Fogelman, Jess Rosenthal, Ben Smith, and JJ Philbin.
