Hulu plans to add 135 new TV shows and movies to its subscription Video on Demand service in February 2024. Here’s the three most interesting, in my humble opinion.
FX’s Feud: Capote vs. the Swans
Tom Hollander stars as mercurial writer Truman Capote who betrays his coterie of high society females (‘The Swans’) by penning a thinly veiled expose of their exploits. Based on a true story, the FX original (airs one day later on Hulu) from Ryan Murphy features a delicious cast as the betrayed ladies, including Naomi Watts, Diane Lane, Chloe Sevigny and Calista Flockhart. Sounds like fun. Debuts on Hulu on February 1.
Judas and the Black Messiah
The film, which is based on a real-life story, stars LaKeith Stanfield as Bill O’Neal, an FBI informant who infiltrates the Black Panthers during the 1960s to get incriminatory evidence against its leaders. However, O’Neal soon regrets his mission when his work triggers a controversial homicide of the group’s leader, Fred Hampton, played exceptionally by Daniel Kaluuya. Debuts February 1.
Shogun
Based on the 1975 same-named novel, the 10-episode original FX series stars Cosmo Jarvis as John Blackthorne, an English sailor who’s shipwrecked in Japan in the 15th Century. Blackthorne soon clashes with a Japanese warrior over the affections of a dangerous female Samurai. Debuts on FX and Hulu on February 27.
