Hulu announced Tuesday that it has signed new affiliate agreements with 21st Century Fox and The Walt Disney Company.
The deals will add Fox’s entertainment, news, sports and non-fiction services, as well as Disney’s portfolio of networks from Disney/ABC Television Group and ESPN Inc. to the lineup of programming that will be available to stream live and on-demand through the company’s new TV streaming service, set to launch early next year.
“We’re building a service that offers subscribers the most sought-after programming on television — and channels from 21st Century Fox and The Walt Disney Company are essential to that mix,” Mike Hopkins, CEO of Hulu, said in a statement.
