Disney+ and Hulu are now using a combined login, so you can get Hulu either in its own app or as a Disney+ channel. The Hulu app is getting decommissioned sometime in 2026. Until then, Disney brings you the ultra-popular Marvel and Star Wars franchises, while Hulu handles a more adult-oriented audience with movies and shows from network partners like Fox.
The two services release a ton of content every week, so I’ll make it easy for you by picking three worthwhile things to watch. Transitioning into a new month always brings a big slate of movies, plus returning favorite shows and more. The full list of content coming to the streaming services is below.
This Week on Hulu and Disney+: PCMag’s Picks
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (Jan. 31, Hulu)
The revived Apes franchise makes for consistently fun films, and 2024’s Kingdom expands the frame into the future, where apes have become Earth’s dominant species and roving groups of humans eke out a feral existence. When a chimpanzee named Noa sees his clan abducted by raiders, he must link up with a surprising human ally to prevent a world takeover. It’s fun, and the effects are great.

We Call It Imagineering (Feb. 4, Disney+)
It’s easy to forget that Walt Disney wasn’t just an artistic pioneer but also a technical one. The inner workings of Disneyland and Disney World’s many rides and exhibits have pushed the envelope, and the “imagineers” who make it happen are the subjects of this new series. Each episode dives into how the company’s artisans and scientists build robots, environments, visual effects, and more.

The Muppet Show (Feb. 4, Disney+)
Disney has owned the Jim Henson Muppet franchise for a while now, but hasn’t been able to recapture the zany magic that made it a favorite among boomer and Gen X kids. In 2026, they’re going back to the original variety show formula, with special guest Sabrina Carpenter (who may be genetically half Muppet herself). Executive produced by Seth Rogen, if this special does well, maybe we’ll get a full series out of it.
