Selena Gomez is clearly embracing her time in London, where she is currently stationed for the filming of the highly anticipated sixth season of Only Murders in the Building.
The 33-year-old multifaceted star took to Instagram on Sunday (May 24) to offer fans a delightful glimpse behind the curtain of the acclaimed Hulu mystery-comedy as production kicks off overseas.
“First week in London,” Gomez captioned the update, punctuated by a festive British flag and a series of heart-filled emojis.
The Rare Beauty mogul launched the photo dump with a playful video, tapping into the trending Sabrina Carpenter “House Tour” challenge. In the clip, she effortlessly lip-syncs along to the track while gesturing toward an elaborate dessert tower at a local eatery. The song, featured on Carpenter’s chart-topping 2025 album Man’s Best Friend, continues to enjoy significant popularity.
Beyond the trend, the gallery provided a warm, candid look at her London life. Among the highlights were snapshots of the “Single Soon” singer exploring the city streets, settling in for a round of Scrabble, and sharing lighthearted moments on set with legendary co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short, with the iconic silhouette of Big Ben looming in the distance.
The move to London represents a major shift for the series, which was officially greenlit for a sixth outing in October 2025. This production cycle marks a historic first for the show as it expands its narrative beyond American borders.
Reflecting on the milestone earlier this year, Gomez expressed profound gratitude to the show’s devoted fanbase. “It looks like our family is heading to London,” she shared via Instagram Stories, thanking the audience for the opportunity to reach a sixth season. “We are eternally grateful to be able to bring you joy. Sending my deepest appreciation from myself, Steve, and Marty.”
Since its debut in 2021, Only Murders in the Building has cemented its status as a streaming powerhouse, boasting an impressive collection of seven Emmy Awards from 56 nominations. The London setting is a logical progression for the series, following the fifth season’s cliffhanger that centered on a podcast investigation into an alleged royal-adjacent crime in the U.K.
