Netflix‘s Murderville trailer is here, and getting to the bottom of a vicious crime has never been more ridiculous. Murderville stars Will Arnett as Senior Detective Terry Seattle of Homicide Division. Every day means a new murder case and a new celebrity guest star as his partner. But here’s the catch: each episode’s guest star isn’t being given the script. They have no idea what’s about to happen to them. Together, the guest star and Terry Seattle will have to improvise their way through the case… but it will be up to each celebrity guest alone to name the killer. Join them as they punch a one-way ticket to Murderville.
The six-episode procedural crime comedy premieres globally on Netflix on February 3. Starring alongside Arnett for this off-the-wall exercise in improvisation is Haneefah Wood as Chief Rhonda Jenkins, Lilan Bowden as Medical Examiner Amber Kang, and Phillip Smithey as Detective Darren ‘Daz’ Phillips. As the Murderville trailer plays out, we find Arnett’s Detective Terry Seattle being joined by several celebrity guests, including Annie Murphy (Schitt’s Creek), Conan O’Brien (Death Stranding), Ken Jeong (The Hangover, Community), Kumail Nanjiani (Eternals, Stuber), NFL star Marshawn Lynch (Brooklyn Nin-Nine), and Sharon Stone (Basic Instinct, Casino).
Directed by Iain Morris and Brennan Shroff, Murdervill is executive produced by Will Arnett, Marc Forman, Jonathan Stern, Peter Principato, Brian Steinberg. Tom Davis, Andy Brereton, and James De Frond. Krister Johnson serves as showrunner, writer, and executive producer. Meanwhile, Anna Drezen, Chadd Gindin, Craig Rowin, Jack Kukoda, Marina Cockenberg, Kerry O’Neill, Hannah Levy, and Adriana Robles all act as writers on the series.
In addition to dropping the new Murderville trailer, Netflix also unveiled several images and key art for the improvisational murder mystery series:
