Hulu’s fall 2026 lineup is currently anchored by the return of American Horror Story and the breakout success of the crime thriller Furious. Whether you are looking for long-running comedies or new original films, the platform has recently updated several of its flagship titles with new seasons and high-profile sequels.
The Breakout Success of ‘Furious’
The crime thriller Furious has emerged as one of the platform’s most significant hits of the year. Created by Elizabeth Meriwether, the series stars Emmy Rossum as FBI agent Alice Black. Drawing inspiration from the 1987 film Black Widow, the show follows Black as she navigates a complex web of investigations.
Following its strong critical reception, Hulu officially renewed Furious for a second season in late August 2026. The renewal ensures that Rossum’s portrayal of Agent Black will continue, though a specific premiere date for the second installment has not yet been announced.
American Horror Story: 13
For horror fans, the thirteenth season of American Horror Story centers on Ben DeSoto, a hospice worker suffering from triskaidekaphobia, an intense fear of the number 13.
The season follows a 13-episode run, with new episodes releasing every Thursday. Viewers tracking the series should note that the season finale is scheduled to air on Thursday, October 29, 2026, just in time for the Halloween holiday.
Returning Comedy Favorites
Hulu’s comedy roster has seen significant updates this fall as well. The following series have recently launched new episodes:
- It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia: The long-running series returned for its 18th season. The premiere episode, titled “Frank Marries a Corpse,” set the tone for the new season’s characteristic dark humor.
- Chad Powers: Starring Glen Powell, the second season of Chad Powers began streaming on September 3, 2026. The series continues to follow Powell’s character as he navigates the world of college football under a secret identity.
Recent Film Additions
Several major films that saw theatrical releases earlier in 2026 have also made their way to the streaming service. The Devil Wears Prada 2 features Simone Ashley as Amari, the “new Andy” and first assistant to Miranda Priestly. The cast is rounded out by newcomers Lucy Liu and Kenneth Branagh, expanding the world of Runway magazine.
Additionally, the horror-action sequel Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is now available for streaming. Starring Kathryn Newton as Faith, the film follows the events of the 2019 original, continuing the deadly game of hide-and-seek that defined the first movie’s premise.
