June was an exciting month for Disney+ and Hulu, concluding with a flourish. Hulu wrapped up its season of The Bear, while Disney+ dazzled audiences with James Cameron’s $1.5 billion hit, Avatar: Fire and Ash. With June behind us, it’s time to anticipate the new content coming to U.S. subscribers on both platforms in July.
As is customary, July starts with a wave of exciting licensed films available from the first day. Key titles include Christopher Nolan’s surreal masterpiece Interstellar, which premieres on Hulu alongside the complete Twilight anthology, in addition to the original Iron Man and Iron Man 2. Expect fan favorites such as Dirty Dancing, Bend It Like Beckham, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and both versions of Mamma Mia!, plus Adam Sandler’s Happy Gilmore. If you subscribe to the Disney Bundle, you’ll find many of these films on the Disney+ app as well.
July also features notable original programming, highlighted by Nat Geo’s docudrama Pompeii: Out of Time with Tom Hiddleston (July 23) and Hulu’s thriller Furious (July 27). Additionally, the much-anticipated second season of Marvel’s X-Men ’97 kicks off with a three-episode premiere on July 1. For the younger audience, the musical special Descendants: Wicked Wonderland arrives on July 17. To wrap up the month, Disney+ and Hulu will broadcast Lollapalooza live from Chicago from July 30 to August 2, featuring notable acts like Lorde and John Summit.
