Will Nick and Audrey Spitz be back to solve more murder mysteries? Continue reading to learn more about Netflix’s Murder Mystery 3.
With the debut of the much-anticipated Murder Mystery 2 on Netflix a few hours ago, the fandom was quick to stream the 89-minute movie as soon as possible and trust us, the hype surrounding this sequel has lived up to expectations because, in a few hours, it has entered the top 10 charts around the world on Netflix, which is great for a sequel being released after the 2019 film Murder Mystery.
After all this great news, the fans have also started to wonder if there will be a third movie in the works or not. It is not a far-fetched question, as it seems like the second film sets up the potential for another sequel. So, if you also watched Murder Mystery 2 and are wondering the same thing, then you have come to the right place, as we have compiled everything we know so far about the third film on Netflix.
Murder Mystery 3: Is it in the works or not?
Firstly, we would like to clear the air by saying that, unfortunately, the third movie in the Murder Mystery series has not been announced by Netflix yet. As mentioned above, we know that the sequel premiered a few hours ago, so it is unreasonable to ask for any updates about a potential third movie. So, the fans might have to wait some time for the network to acknowledge this information, if it ever happens!
There is no doubt that this action comedy mystery film series has the potential to become a great franchise, and so far the viewers have also agreed with the idea of watching the beloved duo be back for more movies. We would like to highlight that this can only happen if the creators create more intriguing murder cases for Nick and Audrey Spitz to solve without making them monotonous and boring.
Before the planning and production phases begin to fully take effect, there are many factors that influence the approval of a third movie, including general reception, production costs, budgets, investments, and schedules that need to be cleared up in order to make a promising movie that leaves a memorable mark on the minds of the viewers and makes them want more! Hence, this might take some time to approve.
What is our prediction?
Right now, we at Web News Observer are very certain that all signs are positive for a third movie to happen without any doubts, as the second one ended with a potential plotline that can be explored further as we see Nick and Audrey strengthen their love by placing a symbolic clasp on a Paris bridge before they return home.
*Spoiler Alert*
If you have streamed the movie then you’ll know that the two are in for one more surprise: the Maharajah has sent an aide to lend them his helicopter and a bag full of cash in appreciation for solving yet another riddle. Nick and Audrey depart for their well-deserved vacation. It all works out in the end!
Moreover, the Spitzes’ helicopter pilot drops his absurd European accent and holds the couple up at gunpoint, taking their bag of cash and parachuting out of the helicopter. Freeze-frame on Nick and Audrey stranded above Greece, Champagne spilled and honeymoon potentially ruined. How’re they going to get out of this one?
On the other hand, director Jeremy Garelick tells Tudum, quote, “Well, first of all, they have to figure out how to land the helicopter safely.” Further adding, “They’re learning to fly a helicopter on the go as they’re approaching Greece. So we’ll see. But I can guarantee that there’ll be a huge damage bill at the end.”
So, we don’t see Nick and Audrey splitting up anytime soon when they have the potential of having a hugely successful comedic trilogy, leaving the door open for more tales to be told with them.
Furthermore, if the third movie is approved, it will make its return sometime in late 2024 or even 2025, as this time it has the chance to start production early without much restriction. We guess this timeframe is ideal to get the right balance without any rush just for the sake of getting it out on Netflix. Of course, this is just speculation, and we’ll have to wait for some time for any prominent network like Netflix to confirm these details in the near future!
In order to receive information on the release date of Murder Mystery 3, the viewers may keep a close eye on social media to learn about the status of the movie series. Until then, we’ll just have to wait and patiently watch what decision the network goes forward with.
Murder Mystery 2: What is the sequel about?
The official synopsis states, “When an NYC cop (Adam Sandler) finally takes his wife (Jennifer Aniston) on a long-promised European trip, a chance meeting on the flight gets them invited to an intimate family gathering on the Super Yacht of elderly billionaire Malcolm Quince. When Quince is murdered, they become the prime suspects in a modern-day whodunit.”
Netflix Tudum highlights, Nick and Audrey Spitz are now full-time detectives trying to get their private eye agency off the ground. But, amid their business struggles, they find themselves at the center of an international scandal: Their friend, the Maharajah, is kidnapped at his own wedding. The sequel sees Nick and Audrey attempt to solve yet another mystery in an effort to find and bring home the Maharajah.
For Garelick, the secret to what makes the murder mystery genre so thrilling is the audience’s sense of participation. You’re not just watching people solve a case — you’re also trying to piece together the clues in real-time. “I love being able to play along,” he says. If at the end of the day, I can actually figure it out and solve it along with our main characters, it feels like we were on a journey together.”
The cast members include Adam Sandler as Nick Spitz, Jennifer Aniston as Audrey Spitz, Mark Strong as Miller, Mélanie Laurent as Claudette, Jodie Turner-Smith as Countess Sekou, John Kani as Colonel Ulenga, Kuhoo Verma as Saira, Dany Boon as Inspector Delacroix, Adeel Akhtar as The Maharajah, Enrique Arce as Francisco, Zurin Villanueva as Imani, Jillian Bell as Susan, Tony Goldwyn as Silverfox, Annie Mumolo as Mrs. Silverfox, and Myo Leong as Mr. Lou.
We also urge the readers to stream the first part of Murder Mystery along with the sequel in order to understand the complete story so far. The movies are available to stream exclusively on Netflix, with the basic membership starting at $9.99/month and the standard membership starting at $15.49/month at no additional cost.
