Hulu's film lineup leans on 20th Century Studios releases and titles from indie studio Neon. Predator: Badlands, directed by Dan Trachtenberg and starring Elle Fanning, reached nearly 9 million views worldwide in its first five days — the largest movie premiere in Hulu's history. Anora, directed by Sean Baker and starring Mikey Madison, won five Academy Awards at the 2025 ceremony, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actress. It holds 93% on Rotten Tomatoes. Alien: Romulus, directed by Fede Alvarez and starring Cailee Spaeny, brought the franchise back to its horror roots and has a Metacritic score of 64. Rental Family, a 2026 release, sits at 87% on Rotten Tomatoes. Plex lets you browse these titles with full cast details, ratings, and trailers, and compare them with other services to help you decide what to watch.
The Bear, created by Christopher Storer and starring Jeremy Allen White, leads Hulu's scripted series. Its Season 3 premiere drew 5.4 million views over four days, ranking as Hulu's highest-viewed scripted premiere to date, with 1.2 billion viewing minutes in its opening week. The series holds a 93% overall rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, now in its fourth season, is Hulu's most-watched unscripted series of all time. Paradise, starring Sterling K. Brown, is a political thriller that has been trending on the platform since early 2025. Love Story, an FX Ryan Murphy anthology about JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, and The Beauty, a body-horror thriller also from Murphy, are among the newer additions pulling strong viewership. Plex tags each Hulu title by genre, so you can filter and compare options without switching between apps.
Predator: Badlands holds that record. The film debuted to nearly 9 million global views in five days, surpassing the previous record held by 2022's Prey, also directed by Dan Trachtenberg. Prey's exact premiere numbers were never disclosed, but it had been Hulu's top film premiere since its August 2022 debut. Audiences have streamed more than 300 million hours of Predator franchise content across Hulu and Disney+ combined. Plex displays ratings and cast details for each title in the franchise, helping you decide what to add to your Watchlist.

Yes. Disney confirmed in August 2025 that it will fully integrate Hulu into the Disney+ app, discontinuing the standalone Hulu app by the end of 2026. As of March 2026, the standalone app still works on most devices — the Nintendo Switch Hulu app was already shut down on February 5, 2026. For current subscribers, pricing, login credentials, and access remain unchanged during the transition. Disney has not announced a firm date for the final switchover. Hulu content is already accessible through the Hulu on Disney+ hub for bundle subscribers. This merger does not affect how Hulu titles appear on Plex.
