A Hulu/Disney+/Max Streaming Bundle Is Coming — But When?
Looking to watch Only Murders in the Building, The Acolyte and Hacks without breaking the bank? You’ll soon be able to stream all three and more under one deal.
Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery today announced a new streaming bundle that includes Disney+, Hulu and Max — offering access to a plethora of entertainment brands such as ABC, HBO, FX, DC, Marvel, Discovery and HGTV.
With the bundle launching this summer, subscribers will have the option to purchase ad-supported and ad-free plans on all three platforms. An exact date has not yet been announced.
MAY 9 UPDATE: In a company earnings call on Thursday, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav described the bundle’s plans as “ad-lite” and ad-free, while the company’s global streaming chief JB Perrette said the bundle “will be priced very attractively for consumers.”
This comes after Disney and Hulu deployed in March the Hulu on Disney+ bundle for U.S. subscribers, combining both streamers’ libraries into one convenient place.
“On the heels of the very successful launch of Hulu on Disney+, this new bundle with Max will offer subscribers even more choice and value,” Joe Earley, President of Direct to Consumer at Disney Entertainment, said in a statement. “This incredible new partnership puts subscribers first, giving them access to blockbuster films, originals, and three massive libraries featuring the very best brands and entertainment in streaming today.”
Perrette added, “This new offering delivers for consumers the greatest collection of entertainment for the best value in streaming, and will help drive incremental subscribers and much stronger retention. Offering this unprecedented entertainment value for fans across all the complimentary genres these three services offer, presents a powerful new roadmap for the future of the industry.”
