Say Goodbye to Hulu? Here’s What’s Actually Happening in 2026
Streaming’s changing, but your favourite shows aren’t going anywhere soon.
So, here’s the tea: Hulu as we know it is about to vanish — poof — by 2026. But before you freak out, let me explain what’s really happening and why it’s actually not the end of the world. Disney just dropped the bomb that Hulu’s green app will disappear, and all its shows and movies will move over to Disney+.
I get it, change is scary, especially when it messes with your streaming routine. But honestly? This could be a blessing in disguise. Instead of juggling apps, you’ll get one sleek platform with everything — from kids’ cartoons to gritty dramas, sports, and yes, all your beloved Hulu originals.
Disney CEO Bob Iger and CFO Hugh Johnston say it’s about cutting costs and keeping us glued to the screen longer, which makes sense in this streaming wars madness.
Oh, and international viewers, listen up — Hulu is stepping in to replace the "Star" section on Disney+, becoming the new home for all the adult stuff worldwide. For those with Hulu + Live TV, don’t worry, you’ll be moved over to a fresh new platform called Fubo (think of it as the new hotspot for live TV).
So yeah, Hulu the app is going, but Hulu the content? It’s just getting a glow-up. Honestly, I’m kinda excited to see how this shakes out. Are you?
