Although plot details remain secretive, it is known that season 4 will pick up on the cliffhanger of the recurring character Sazz (Jane Lynch) being killed by a sniper. Given that Sazz is the stunt double for Charles (Steve Martin), the question seems to be whether Charles was the intended target of the sniper shot. Like season 3 centered on Oliver's Broadway world, season 4 will likely put the spotlight on Charles' acting career.
It's also known that Only Murders in the Building season 4 will partially take place in Los Angeles. Loretta received two offers in productions that would require her to relocate to Los Angeles. Her boyfriend, Oliver (Martin Short), promises to visit. It has since been confirmed that the series, co-created by John Hoffman and Steve Martin, will eventually head back to the central Acronia building.
