Hulu is an American subscription streaming service majority-owned by The Walt Disney Company, with Comcast's NBCUniversal holding a minority stake (1:2). It was launched on October 29, 2007 and it offers a library of films and television series from studios including 20th Century Studios, Searchlight Pictures, Disney Television Studios, ABC, Freeform, and FX Networks among others, as well as Hulu original programming. Hulu was initially established as a joint venture between News Corporation and NBC Universal, Providence Equity Partners, and later The Walt Disney Company, serving as an aggregation of recent episodes of television series from their respective television networks. In 2010, Hulu launched a subscription service, initially branded as "Hulu Plus", which featured full seasons of programs from the companies and other partners, and undelayed access to new episodes. In 2017, the company launched Hulu with Live TV—an over-the-top live TV service featuring linear television channels. As of January 1, 2023, Hulu has a total of 48 million subscribers in United States. In 2011, Hulu began its first and only overseas expansion by launching its service in Japan. Three years later in 2014, the Japan counterpart of Hulu was acquired by Nippon TV and has since been operated as a separate service under the name Hulu Japan.

for Streaming Service in Kill Doctor Lucky (2024)
Suggested by visno
Kill Doctor Lucky is a board game, best summed up as “reverse Clue/Cluedo” in the sense that the objective of Clue was to discover who the killer was, where as in KDL, the objective is to, as the title implies, kill Dr. Lucky. This story is vaguely set in the victorian era. The film follows 8 guests of the titular Dr. Lucky are invited to his mansion for a dinner party to announce his retirement. Unbeknownst to the doctor, all of his guests hold a deep grudge against him, with murderous intent. The story is told thru the perspectives of each prospective murderer, each of which do not know that the others also wish to put Dr. Lucky into an early grave, believing that all of the others are his close friends, and the finale of the film ends with the death of Dr. Lucky; however multiple endings will be shot and different viewings of the film will end with different killers having succeeded in getting away with the murder; and this is where streaming services come in, as hypothetically they can deliver different viewings to different viewers unknowingly, and only upon talking about the film to other people that saw it would they learn that there are multiple endings to be seen.
