Hulu has carved out its place as a major player in the streaming industry with a combination of original series and established classics. Its relationship with both ABC and FX allows it to show network and cable shows that other streamers don’t have access to, creating a large library for fans of any genre. Hulu has anime, reality TV, drama, and comedy, and is continuously adding to its collection. These are five shows coming to Hulu in July that you’ll want to watch. Here’s what’s new on Hulu!

Futurama (1999)

Adult animation fans have been waiting quite a while for the triumphant return of one of the most unique, cult classic comedies in the history of the FOX network. Futurama is little bit of The Simpsons, but with a lot of science fiction twists and satirical romps through the future. (Not to mention, one of the saddest scenes in television history.) The show has been off the air for a decade, but new episodes should satisfy fans starting on July 24 on Hulu.

Nothing gets the juices pumping during the summer like a true crime thriller, except maybe a first-hand account of the crimes. Hulu has you covered with this movie about the heists pulled off by Canadian convict Gerard Blanchard, famous for stealing the Star of Empress Sisi. Blanchard shares some of his experiences as a jewel thief and spills the secrets of his hidden ways.

One of the best supernatural TV series of the past decade, What We Do in the Shadows is entering its fifth season on July 13 with an abundance of energy and storylines still at its disposal. The vampire family at the heart of the series is interesting and funny at the same time, offering a different look at family life than what we are used to in similar mockumentaries like Modern Family or The Office

The Lumon building from ‘Severance’ is just a short drive from New York City
The building was built in the 1960s, and was abandoned in 2007 before being revived in 2013
The Severance Building.

If you've actually watched Severance, you probably know that the Lumon headquarters where Mark and his friends go to work every day isn't exactly the most welcoming building. If you're the kind of person that just has to know whether you're secretly severed, though, you can visit the real-life location where the exteriors of the Lumon headquarters are filmed.

As it turns out, the building is the Bell Works building in Holmdel, New Jersey. It was once the home of Bell Labs, the research arm for AT&T. The building is now home to multiple business, and according to reporting in Curbed, it was first designed in 1962 by architect Eero Saarinen and was opened as a mid-century office space.

Netflix stock is falling after forecasts show slower subscription growth
It's impossible to say how much of the stock's fall is attributable to subscriber forecasts
Netflix on a phone

The mightiest streamer of all is falling. Netflix stock dropped 8.5% on Thursday after forecasts suggested that its subscriber growth was slowing. This comes after 2024 saw record growth in the company's stock price as subscriptions soared following their crackdown on password sharing.

The tumult with Netflix's stock is also related to broader economic trends, as many stocks declined in reaction to President Trump's tariffs. Spotify (-7.4%), Warner Bros. Discovery (-6.4%), Roku (-6.4%), Disney (-3.6%), and Amazon (-3.7%) all saw their stock prices fall.

The 8 best Adrien Brody movies to watch, from Oscar winners to hidden gems
Oscar-worthy movies and plenty of Wes Anderson feature in his catalogue
Adrien Brody in The Brutalist

Adrien Brody's career is one of the more interesting roller coasters of the 21st century. After winning the Academy Award for Best Actor at a record-breaking youthful age of 29, the Queens native was poised to dominate the decades of the 2000s and 2010s with his stylish charisma and measured approach to acting. Instead, Brody meandered through his 30s and 40s with a handful of solid to great performances without much fanfare or recognition.

If you have watched any Wes Anderson movies in the last 20 years, you would have likely seen Brody appear in some capacity. And while Anderson's films fit Brody's persona on screen, they didn't allow him to capitalize on his superstar lead potential the way people expected. His most recent effort, The Brutalist, earned him a second Academy Award for Best Actor. Only a small handful of legends have achieved this feat, such as Jack Nicholson, Sean Penn, and Tom Hanks. If you're looking to catch up on some of his other great works, we have you covered. These are the best Adrien Brody movies to watch right away.
