‘Only Murders in the Building’ creator drops shocking billionaires bombshell
John Robert Hoffman, the creator of Only Murders in the Building, has shared that season five’s trio was inspired by “well-known billionaires.”
In a talk with Entertainment Weekly, the American actor, screenwriter, producer and director revealed that the fifth season’s trio, which consists of Renee Zellweger, Logan Lerman, and Christopher Waltz, is inspired by real-life billionaires, but he is now more conscious to not name any of them.
Hoffman laughingly said, “Unfortunately, many of those billionaires are litigious, so I’m also nervous to hit too close to home.”
“But there are some well-known people who are interested in longevity [of human life]. There’s some well-known people who are interested in design and boutique hotels in Manhattan, and tastemakers that have risen above the fold. And then the others are the sort of extended family of longtime money — there’s many examples of all of that. And then there’s the technology wizards and A.I. advancement and things like that. We kind go all into that territory with this whole season,” he explained.
The Fortune Hunter star noted that when he came up with the idea of three affluent characters, he liked taking inspirations “here and there” from real-life cases of well-to-do people.
“That felt both somewhat accurate and pointed and then somewhat inventive. We’re a comedy, so we’re hitting it with a little bit of a soft, ridiculous touch at times,” Hoffman quipped.
For the unversed, in Only Murders in the Building season 5, Steve Martin’s Charles-Haden Savage, Martin Short’s Oliver Putnam, and Selena Gomez’s Mabel Mora look into the death of the Arconia’s doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), who was found in the courtyard fountain after Oliver and Meryl Streep’s Loretta Durkin’s wedding.
Notably, the case leads them to one of the richest people in the world, who may be tied to Lester’s death.
It is pertinent to mention that the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building will be released on September 9, 2025, on Disney+ and Hulu.

Sean Diddy Combs docuseries raises expectations with new bombshell
Sean Diddy Combs’ new documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, is produced by none other than his arch-nemeses, 50 Cent, and the teaser promises to pull back the curtain on the rapper’s scandals and crimes.
The new trailer, which is only 56 seconds long, showed new footage from before the Bad Boy Records founder’s arrest in September 2024, and he appeared visibly worried about losing the legal battle, which hadn’t started yet.
The footage released on December 1 showed the disgraced music mogul scrambling for legal help as he tells his team, “We have to find somebody that’ll work with us that has dealt in the dirtiest of dirty business. We’re losing!”
Social media sleuths flocked to X and shared their curiosity over the documentary, which will be available to stream on December 2.
“50 cent trolling diddy hard with this one,” one X user wrote, while another echoed, “50 been waiting his whole life to drop this bomb on Diddy and tomorrow Netflix finally hands him the mic. All those years of shots fired on Instagram just turned into a whole documentary,” referring to decades-long feud between the two musicians.
“They let 50 produce it? oh he’s COOKINGDDDD somebody up,” chimed in a third, while one reacted, “Oh yeah, this is about to shake the whole internet again.”
While Diddy is serving up to 50 months in prison, 50 Cent has collected never-before-seen footage and explosive information on the former’s Freak Off parties, as well as stories from the accusers, which will be told in the documentary.

Kristen Bell, Dax Shepherd kids call mom villain in parents’ movie
Kristne Bell and Dax Shepherd got unfiltered feedback from their daughters on their 2012 film, Hit & Run.
During a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the Idiocracy star revealed that Lincoln (12) and Delta (10) saw the movie, and were stunned to see Bell’s character break up with his character.
“They were very upset,” he shared their kids’ swift and brutally honest reaction. “and what made me so happy is they were mad at Mom, not me. They thought Mom was a b—h. They thought Daddy was a good boy with a bad past, and she should be able to overlook that, and I agree.”
Bell sitting beside her partner on the November 28 episode laughed off the critique.
She noted that the kids ultimately liked the movie.
“We spent we spent all this time making this independent film and Daddy wrote it and directed it and they were like, ‘We want to see it,’” Dax continued.
“And we hadn’t watched it in forever. We like, ‘OK, let’s watch it with you.’ They loved it. It’s very inappropriate. And it was a great litmus test for our children.”
