Disney+ and Hulu looking to 'combine content' - Blubatt - 14-05-2023

As reported by the BBC, the inevitable is finally happening. Disney+ and Hulu are looking to share content, as Disney+ loses 3 million subscribers in 3 months, and the current joint ownership of Hulu with Comcast is being looked at, ahead of the expiry of the current arrangement.

In Latin America, some content is shared between Disney+ and Star+ (its Hulu/ESPN+ equivalent for the region):
- The Simpsons S29-30 (Star+ has all seasons), The Simpsons Movie, Simpsons shorts
- Deadpool / Deadpool 2
- Logan
- Flamin' Hot (Hulu/Star Original)
- Save our Squad with David Beckham (Disney+ Original)
- Protectors (Star Original from Argentina)
- The King of TV (Star Original from Brazil)
- Releyendo Mafalda (upcoming original series from Argentina, with neither the "Disney+ Original" nor the "Star Original" labels)
- Perdida (Brazilian theatrical film, distributed by Disney-owned Star Distribution)

Some live events (such as the livestream of Tini's last concert of her 2022 tour) were also available on both services in the region.

As expected, Disney is buying out Hulu.

Hulu has finally launched on Disney+, although you'll need to buy the "Disney Bundle" in order to use it on Disney+ in the United States. It functions much in the same way as Star internationally, although with Disney Star merging with Paramount's Viacom18, I presume that Hulu will be introduced as a replacement to Star in the near future.

Course, Disney have made viewers aware with a widespread marketing campaign, including this rather clever crossover billboard with Peter Griffin taking the place of the word "family".
