‘Only Murders in the Building’ has been renewed for a fifth season.

The hit comedy-drama series starring Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez will return to Hulu with ten episodes, according to Variety.

The news emerged days after season four of ‘Only Murders in the Building’ — which features Meryl Streep, Eugene Levy, Zach Galifianakis, Eva Longoria, Richard Kind, Melissa McCarthy, Kumail Nanjiani, and Molly Shannon — premiered on the streaming platform.

The show has proven to be a major success with viewers and critics, with season three earning 21 Emmy nominations.

Gomez, 32, has been nominated for the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series gong at the Emmys and she recently revealed that she feels “comfortable” playing Mabel Mora.

She said she loves the “evolution” of her character since the show began in 2021.

Gomez told ‘Extra’: “I think that Mabel has been on a constant evolution throughout the series, trying to find a home, trying to find where she belongs. At the same time knowing what she wants to do.

“Honestly, I love being able to play a character that I’ve moulded into what I feel comfortable with. I’m just glad that it is received well.”
