\n\tThe guest star list for Season 6 of Only Murders in the Building<\/a> just keeps growing.<\/p>\n

\n\tOlivia Colman<\/a> has boarded the sixth season of Hulu<\/a>\u2018s cozy murder mystery show, set to take place across the pond. The news was unveiled on social media in a video by Selena Gomez<\/a>, Meryl Streep<\/a> and Martin Short<\/a> via the show\u2019s Instagram account. The clip can be watched below.<\/p>\n

\n\tColman is the latest addition to the star-studded cast of Season 6, following Doctor Who alum Peter Capaldi<\/a>. She also joins fellow\u00a0Season 6 recurring cast additions<\/a>\u00a0Jodie Whittaker, Capaldi\u2019s successor and the first woman to portray the iconic Time Lord, and the actor most closely associated with the role. David Tennant, who played the Tenth Doctor and the Fourteenth Doctor will also appear, as will Jim Broadbent.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe previously announced Season 6 recurring guest stars also include Nicola Coughlan, Richard Ayoade, Adrian Lukis, Kathryn Hunter, Jennifer Saunders, Sean Teale, Simone Ashley, Amar Chadha-Patel, Rhea Norwood, Matthew Beard, Sharon Horgan, Martin Freeman, Geri Halliwell-Horner, Jamie Demetriou, Anjana Vasan, Jane Horrocks, Derek Jacobi and Lesley Nicol.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe London-set installment marks the first time the show has gone outside the United States and the beloved Arconia building, where all of the former deaths and investigations have taken place.<\/p>\n

\n\tColman\u2019s upcoming Wicker film, in which her fisherwoman character asks Peter Dinklage\u2019s basketmaker to weave her a husband, garnered buzz after the trailer \u2014 teasing Alexander Skarsg\u00e5rd\u2019s straw transformation \u2014 was released<\/a> at the end of July. The film arrives in theaters Oct. 23.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe have had so many amazing guest stars for Only Murders in the Building,\u201d Gomez kicked off the announcement video. Streep agreed, saying \u201cWe\u2019re just missing one.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tBut it\u2019s not Martin Short, who stepped into the frame in an Oliver Putnam-esque way. He then gestured and named Olivia Colman, who joined them and curtsied. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The guest star list for Season 6 of Only Murders in the Building just keeps growing.
