Disney to Fully Integrate Hulu into Disney+ and Phase Out Standalone App

Disney is fully integrating Hulu into Disney+ by 2026, replacing the standalone Hulu app and creating a unified streaming service that combines both platforms' content, brands, and features, while also maintaining the option for standalone subscriptions. This move aims to improve user experience, reduce costs, and enhance advertising opportunities, with Hulu becoming a global brand and replacing the Star brand internationally.
