LOS ANGELES — Want access to Hulu exclusives and happen to be a Charter Communications Spectrum customer? There’s a tier offered by the MVPD giant that will now bring that to consumers at no additional cost, starting later this summer.
Thanks to a newly expanded agreement between The Walt Disney Company and Charter, Spectrum TV Select customers will have access to Hulu’s library of content.
These Spectrum customers already enjoy complimentary access to ad-supported Disney+ and ESPN’s soon-to-launch streaming service, anticipated to begin service this autumn.
The newly expanded agreement marks the return of eight Disney-owned linear networks to Spectrum’s channel lineup: Disney Jr, Disney XD, Freeform, FXX, FXM, Nat Geo Wild, Nat Geo Mundo and BabyTV.
“With the addition of Hulu and the return of our full portfolio of channels, we’re pleased to expand and extend our agreement with Charter – delivering the most robust and valuable combination of linear and streaming entertainment for years to come,” said Sean Breen, Executive Vice President of Disney Platform Distribution. “This agreement reflects our continued focus on leaning into the strength of Disney’s best-in-class programming across every genre and platform – and our shared commitment with Charter to building innovative, consumer-focused distribution models that drive value across the board.”
The renewed extension of Charter and Disney’s carriage agreement will continue to be supported by marketing and promotional efforts.
