Disney Expands Video Podcast Slate Across Disney+ and Hulu
The Walt Disney Company's streaming services, Disney+ and Hulu, have expanded their video podcast offerings to cater to diverse fan interests. The move aims to create an immersive experience for viewers by providing exclusive content that complements popular shows.
Last year, the two platforms introduced companion podcasts, starting with shows like Only Murders in the Building and Percy Jackson and the Olympians. These podcasts offered behind-the-scenes insights, cast interviews, and episode breakdowns, which resonated well with fans.
The success of these companion podcasts has led to a wider range of content, including licensed rewatch, comedy, true crime, news, and sports shows. The platform's library is set to double in the coming months, with new additions like Best Friends, Perfect Person, and The Scream Murder: A True Teen Horror Story Podcast.
The goal is to create a one-stop destination for video podcasts, catering to various genres and interests. Companion podcasts remain at the forefront of the lineup, driving fandom and giving fans a closer look at their favorite series and films.
