Disney Is Pulling Multiple Titles From Disney+ and Hulu In A Cost-Cutting Move
Disney is looking to save $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion by removing content that didn’t perform well on Disney+ and Hulu. Here are the films, TV series, and specials that will likely be going away forever.
As The Walt Disney Company continues to find ways to cut costs. They are now taking a strategy from Warner Bros. Discovery and writing off content that wasn’t successful for them. It’s an unfortunate move and it affects the fans, the creatives, and everyone in between. Disney is currently planning on removing these titles from Disney+ and Hulu.

Howard was going to be removed but then Disney realized the optics of removing a documentary about a Disney Legend on the eve of The Little Mermaid live-action remake and a few days away from Pride Month. Howard Ashman is a notable LGBT icon and Disney Legend, and his contributions as a lyricist during the Disney Renaissance were vital to its success.
There could be potentially more pieces of content added to this list in the coming days. That total of $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion is steep, and despite the many titles listed, I don’t think we’ve hit that number yet.
