Dozens of Original Shows Being Removed from Disney+ & Hulu to Cut Costs

Disney will start cutting content from its streaming services early next week. Disney has implemented several cost-cutting measures, and culling its library of offerings on Disney+ and Hulu will help the bottom line. Titles such as “Willow,” “The Mysterious Benedict Society,” “Dollface,” and “The One and Only Ivan” are just some of the over 50 titles that will be leaving the streaming giant in the upcoming future.

All of this comes amidst Disney’s plans to increase prices on the Advertisement Free Tier of Disney+ to “to better reflect the value of our content offerings.” Iger made that announcement in an earnings call to its investors, sharing big plans for the steaming platforms.

CFO Christine McCarthy said Disney expects to take a “write-down” of about 1.5 billion by removing content from its streaming platforms. By lowering the value of its content assets, Disney can reduce its tax bill. Iger remained committed to making streaming profitable and announced that Diseny+ and Hulu would integrate into a single-user experience. Currently, the catalogs of content are on separate apps.
