Hulu Marvel
While talking with the Wrap, Hulu Boss Craig Erwich made some pretty interesting statements. There was the obvious talk of the potential for Hulu to pick up the canceled Netflix Marvel shows, but it doesn’t look like Disney is going to be buying out that contract anytime soon. In the meantime, it seems there is a plan for a group of animated series that will include Kevin Smith, Patton Oswalt, and Chelsea Handler on their creative team. The shows are Howard the Duck, M.O.D.O.K, Hit-Monkey, and Tigra & Dazzler. The eventual plan is to bring these shows to a team-up series called the Offenders.
