Now that Hulu is part of Disney's streaming triumvirate, which includes ESPN+ and Disney+ along with the service, management is undergoing a reorganization. Within its framework, Randy Freer will step down as chief executive.
He took over at the end of 2017 but will now join the rest under the direct supervision of Disney Chairman of Consumer Affairs and International Development Kevin Mayer. Let's see what changes will happen in the future for Hulu: if before the service was the only competitor to Netflix, now it is part of a larger strategy.
Disney CEO Bob Iger previously announced plans to expand Hulu's streaming offerings with digital FX content, led by John Landgraf, head of Disney's recently closed standalone FX streaming service.
Resource The Hollywood Reporter reported that the chairman of Disney TV Studios Dana Walden will now be responsible for writing the original Hulu series. And Deadline says there are plans to also hire a business leader who will be responsible for the further development of the service.
