Hulu is sold in a bundle with Disney Plus in the US. Why does Star exist? Well, while Disney owns Hulu in the US – a great Netflix-style mainstream streaming service with a long history, and the home of lots of Disney-owned adult-targeted content – it doesn't have a footprint outside America. It's included with your Disney Plus subscription. You don't have to do anything extra to get Star. In the UK, the launch of Star doubles the amount of content available to stream on the service, Disney confirmed before launch – so it's a significant offering. This is your gateway into the wider content owned by The Walt Disney Company, including titles from Disney Television Studios, FX, 20th Century Studios and 20th Television. As of launch on February 23, the Disney Plus app homepage has added the Star tile alongside existing channels Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic.
The House of Mouse describes Star on Disney Plus as a "new general entertainment content brand", but we think it's best thought of as a new channel within Disney Plus.
