Hulu Loses Over 1,000 Movies; Questions EPIX Near Future


And it's gone.

Earlier this month, I examined the future of EPIX and how it would be beneficial for Amazon and Paramount if it were to close operations, but Disney was going to lose a bunch of films from Hulu.

But now, first reported by DejaView News, Hulu has lost over 1,000 movies from the EPIX deal that has now expired. The agreement, previously with Netflix, allowed Hulu access to any movies from Paramount, MGM, Lionsgate, and other studios.

Though it hasn't affected Paramount+ yet; however, it does beg the question of what Disney will do. It also answers the question of the future of EPIX, as Amazon should be planning on shuttering the service.

Honestly, this should give more confidence to Disney so they can eventually move its content from Hulu to Disney+ and would further prove my prediction of the closure of EPIX.

What do you think about Hulu losing 1,000 movies?
