Hulu next month (June 2020) plans to add 122 new TV shows and movies to its subscription Video on Demand service, including five originals.
The new titles will include Shirley, which stars Elisabeth Moss as real-life horror writer Shirley Jackson whose tempestuous marriage is further enflamed when she and her husband ( Michael Stuhlbarg) encounter a quirky but naïve young couple. (Sounds like Edward Albee’s ghost was on the set.)
Rottentomatoes.com, which tracks critical reviews, gives the movie a score of 97 out of a possible 100, based on 37 reviews.
“A concoction of fact and magical realism, which may frame the film as a radically more exciting cousin to Stephen Daldry’s Virginia Woolf-centered, triptych drama The Hours,” writes Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com.
Also notable in June: Crossing Swords, a Hulu original series starring Nicholas Hoult as a young peasant whose dream job at the royal castle turns into a nightmare thanks to some horny monarchs, and dastardly crooks; a new episode of Into the Dark, the Hulu original horror anthology. (This installment stars Judy Greer as a nervous woman whose anxiety rises when she learns her support dog kills anyone who adds more stress to her life.); and Taste the Nation, a Hulu original show starring cookbook author Padma Lakshmi who takes her audience on a journey of American food cultures.
