The Percy Jackson and We Were the Lucky Ones star has signed on for Season 5 of Only Murders in the Building, and fans are buzzing. He’ll be playing a recurring role alongside series regulars Selena Gomez, Martin Short, and Steve Martin.
The exciting news came straight from Selena herself, who posted a behind-the-scenes snap showing the new and returning cast gearing up for filming. And it’s not just Logan hopping on board — the photo also revealed some other big names joining the fun, including Oscar winners Renée Zellweger and Christoph Waltz, plus the show’s co-creator John Hoffman.
Adding even more star power to the already stacked cast are Téa Leoni and Keegan-Michael Key, although the specifics about their roles are still under wraps for now.
As for the plot? This season, the beloved trio — Mabel, Charles, and Oliver — will dive into yet another murder mystery, this time trying to solve the case behind Lester’s death. In case you missed it, last season saw them traveling all the way to Hollywood after their true-crime podcast got picked up for a movie. So expect even more twists, turns, and probably a few hilarious mishaps.
Also, fan favorite Michael Cyril Creighton is confirmed to return!
Looking back, Season 4 brought a parade of major stars like Meryl Streep, Eugene Levy, Zach Galifianakis, Eva Longoria, Jane Lynch, Richard Kind, Melissa McCarthy, Kumail Nanjiani, and Molly Shannon — proving that Only Murders in the Building has become the hottest place to be on TV.
It’s also worth mentioning the series has some serious awards cred now too. It recently snagged its very first SAG Award for Best Comedy Series Ensemble, and Martin Short took home Best Male Actor in a Comedy Series. Well deserved!
For Logan Lerman, this marks another big project with 20th Century TV and Hulu after his acclaimed role in We Were the Lucky Ones. More juicy details about Season 5 are expected to drop soon — and judging by the lineup, it’s shaping up to be the show’s biggest season yet!
