Hulu To Offer Starz As A Premuim Add-On
Starz and Hulu today announced the launch of the STARZ premium add-on, available on all of Hulu’s subscription plans, just in time for the upcoming season four premiere of the hit STARZ Original series “Outlander” on Sunday, November 4th.
Beginning today, Hulu subscribers will have even more choice in creating their own personal TV experience on Hulu. Any Hulu viewer can now add STARZ to their subscription plan and gain access to the network’s live STARZ and STARZ ENCORE channels along with its full on-demand catalogs featuring current and past seasons of STARZ original series including “Outlander,” “Power,” “Vida,” “Counterpart,” “American Gods” and more. Hollywood hits and popular movies such as Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Spider-Man: Homecoming and exclusive documentaries are also available within the Hulu experience by adding the STARZ premium channel for $8.99 per month.
The STARZ premium add-on is available on all of Hulu’s subscription plans including the Hulu with Live TV plan, which includes live and on-demand programming from more than 50 popular sports, news, entertainment and kids’ channels such as CNN, Fox News, ESPN, TBS and local ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC channels in many cities — plus access to Hulu’s entire premium streaming library.
In a previously announced deal, Hulu has been the exclusive subscription streaming home to past seasons of STARZ Original hit series “Power.” Since “Power” launched on Hulu last year, subscribers have streamed nearly 50 million hours of the series. All past episodes of the record-breaking drama series through season four are currently available on-demand to all Hulu subscribers, and now with the STARZ add-on, Hulu subscribers can watch all episodes of “Power” – including season five – on supported devices. STARZ on Hulu gives viewers the flexibility to watch programming as it airs live on the network, or on-demand at their convenience.
STARZ is the fourth premium add-on available to Hulu subscribers allowing TV viewers to watch all of their favorite programming in one place. Hulu’s growing offering of subscription plans includes its $7.99 per month Limited Commercials plan, $11.99 per month No Commercials plan and the Hulu with Live TV plan for $39.99 per month.
