Only Murders in the Building season 3 Is About ?
Prepare your red push pins and detective hats because Only Murders in the Building season 3 is set to shift its focus towards Oliver, as hinted in season 2 with the one-year jump to his Broadway directorial debut.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, co-creator John revealed that while season 1 was more focused on Mabel and Tim Kono’s emotional storyline and season 2 explored Charles’ relationship with his father, season 3 will delve into the theatrical side of New York City and delve deeper into Oliver’s world.
The show’s writers have promised an “insane” and “exciting” season ahead, with plenty of twists and a colorfully drawn victim. They are striving to offer fresh and different takes on the narrative.
A recent scene was filmed on the Upper West Side, where the trio, including Selena Gomez in a wedding dress, appeared frantic as they tried to catch a cab during the shoot. This mysterious scene adds to the anticipation of what’s to come in the upcoming season.
