Krispy Kreme Adds Caramel Popcorn Doughnuts — Plus 3 More Treats Inspired by Movie Snacks!
Krispy Kreme is highlighting the tastes of the movie theater with a candy-coated twist.
Available for a limited time starting Monday, Feb. 17, the popular bakery chain is partnering with Hulu to offer a collection of doughnuts inspired by classic cinema eats. The Krispy Kreme x Hulu: Movie Snacks Doughnuts Collection features four new flavors that will remind movie-goers of sitting in a theater while streaming comfortably at home.
Each treat features the sweet tastes of candies and drinks found in almost every cinema snack bar: There's the Caramel Popcorn Doughnut, Candy Double Feature Doughnut, Blue Raspberry Slush Doughnut and the Cookie Dough Superstar Doughnut.
Nothing says movie night like a bucket of popcorn, so the Caramel Popcorn Doughnut is great for fans of a good crunch. The featured doughnut resembles a classic bucket of popcorn with an unglazed shell, filled with caramel popcorn-flavored cream filling, dipped in white icing with red stripes and topped with caramel popcorn on one side.

For those who (understandably) love mixing up all of their candy choices together, the Candy Double Feature Doughnut packs on the layers of chocolate. The Original Glazed Krispy Kreme doughnut is dipped in white icing and topped with milk chocolate M&M-like candy pieces and mini milk chocolate chips, drizzled with chocolate-flavored icing tying it all together.
The Cookie Dough Superstar Doughnut is an unglazed shell doughnut filled with chocolate buttercream-flavored filling, dipped in chocolate-flavored icing, and topped with gold glitter sprinkles and cookie dough bites.

Rounding out the collection, and as the only drink-inspired doughnut in the set, the Blue Raspberry Slush Doughnut is a special addition. The treat is made with an Original Glazed doughnut dipped in blue raspberry-flavored icing and blue-colored sugar sanding. It may turn your tongue blue, but that's also part of the slushie experience, minus the brain freeze.
As part of this unique collaboration, Krispy Kreme is offering fans the chance to win a one-year subscription to Hulu. For more information, visit krispykreme.com. The candy-dipped collection can be purchased at select retailers, via pick-up or delivery, individually, by the dozen, or in a classic Krispy Kreme six-pack box.

3 underrated movies on Hulu you need to watch in June 2025
The Predator franchise gains another entry this month on Hulu. Predator: Killer of Killers is a new adult animated anthology from Prey director Dan Trachtenberg. Killer of Killers explores the lives of three warriors — a Viking raider, a Japanese ninja, and a World War II pilot — and their battles against a Predator. The critically acclaimed movie is now streaming. Speaking of the Predator franchise, one of our picks for underrated movies to watch this month is Predators, which stars two-time Oscar winner Adrien Brody. Check out Predators and two more underrated movies on Hulu. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new shows to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on Max, and the best movies on Disney+. Predators (2010) 2025 is the comeback year for the Predator franchise thanks to Predator: Killer of Killers and Predator: Badlands. Things were not always this positive for the franchise, as many of the Predator movies released between 1987's Predator and 2022's Prey were not successful. The lone bright spot was 2010's Predators, Nimród Antal's standalone sequel to Predator 2. A group of murderers are transported to a mysterious alien planet, where they become the prey of a group of Predators who hunt humans for sport. One of the murderers, a mercenary named Royce (Adrien Brody), deduces that they must work together to free a captive Predator and convince it to help them get back to Earth. Backed by several terrific action sequences, Predators is a wildly entertaining thriller that still holds up 15 years later. Stream Predators on Hulu. Presence (2025) Don't take Steven Soderbergh for granted. Many filmmakers of Soderbergh's stature could coast for the rest of their careers. No one experiments more with the medium than Soderbergh. Take Presence, for example. Soderbergh crafts a supernatural thriller seen through the eyes of the spirit occupying the house. The Presence follows the house's new inhabitants: Rebekah Payne (Lucy Liu), her husband Chris (Chris Sullivan), and two children, Tyler (Eddy Maday) and Chloe (Callina Liang). On the surface, Presence might be viewed as a horror movie. It's not. Presence is a thrilling family drama about grief and trauma. What other filmmaker could pull that off? Only Soderbergh, man. Stream Presence on Hulu. Just Go with It (2011) Life lesson — the funny guys get the girl. Well, at least that's true in Adam Sandler movies. Sandler plays a womanizing plastic surgeon in Just Go With It. After getting his heart broken, Danny Maccabee (Adam Sandler) changes his attitude by pretending to be married to sleep with women. After meeting the beautiful Palmer (Brooklyn Decker), Danny takes the scheme to another level by having his assistant, Katherine (Jennifer Aniston), pose as his future ex-wife. As he spends more time with Katherine, Danny starts to question if he's in love with the wrong woman. Sandler could have chemistry with a tree, so it's no surprise that he and Aniston are a great on-screen tandem. Stream Just Go with It on Hulu.

Disney finally owns all of Hulu, ending long tug-of-war with Comcast
Walt Disney Co. has agreed to pay Comcast Corp. an additional $438.7 million to finalize the Mouse House purchase of streaming service Hulu. Disney in December 2023 initially paid Comcast $8.6 billion for NBCUniversal's one-third stake in the streaming service. The final payment, announced Monday, brings the total to $9 billion, the amount the Burbank entertainment giant will ultimately pay Comcast for its stake. This week's agreement came after an extended appraisal process as the two companies struggled over Hulu's actual value. The platform that is home to 'The Handmaid's Tale' and 'Only Murders in the Building' appears to be worth about $27.5 billion. The resolution also represents a major step in Disney's years-long pivot to streaming. 'We are pleased this is finally resolved,' Disney Chief Executive Bob Iger said in a statement, acknowledging Disney's productive partnership with the Philadelphia-based company. 'Completing the Hulu acquisition paves the way for a deeper and more seamless integration of Hulu's general entertainment content with Disney+ and, soon, with ESPN's direct-to-consumer product, providing an unrivaled value proposition for consumers,' Iger said. The two companies have had tense relations since Comcast launched a failed hostile takeover of Disney in 2004. Tensions flared again seven years ago after Comcast jumped into Disney's bidding process for Rupert Murdoch's entertainment assets, substantially driving up the price for Disney. Disney prevailed. It gained the majority stake in Hulu as part of its $71.3-billion acquisition of much of Murdoch's company in April 2019. That spring, Disney and Comcast negotiated a pact that outlined the governance of the service while it was jointly owned by the two companies and also provided a blueprint to dissolve their partnership. At the time, they agreed that Hulu would be valued at no less than $27.5 billion, making Comcast's stake worth at least $8.6 billion. Comcast's divestiture process began two years ago when Chief Executive Brian Roberts signaled that his company wanted out. The parties then entered into an appraisal process to find a value for Hulu. Disney noted the $438.7 million payment was substantially less than what Comcast had wanted. The deal is expected to close by July 24.

Disney Takes Full Control of Hulu for Billions Less Than Comcast Wanted
The tug of war over Hulu is over. Disney said in a securities filing on Monday that it had agreed to pay Comcast an additional $439 million for full control of the streaming service, ending a year and a half dispute over the amount. Disney had argued that it owed Comcast nothing beyond the $8.6 billion it already paid for Comcast's 33 percent stake — and Comcast countered that Disney owed another $5 billion. Eventually, a third-party appraiser was brought in. The relatively small new payment will not affect Disney's previous guidance for overall company growth in the current fiscal year, Disney said in the filing. The deal is expected to close by July 24. Robert A. Iger, Disney's chief executive, said in a statement that full ownership of Hulu would allow for 'a deeper and more seamless integration of Hulu's general entertainment content with Disney+' and for bundled sales with a new ESPN streaming service that is planned for introduction later this year. In a separate statement, Comcast called Hulu 'a great start for us in streaming,' adding 'we wish Disney well.' Comcast's primary streaming service is now Peacock, which it has been loading with sports content as it seeks to expand advertising sales and subscriber counts. Peacock, which has been unprofitable, has about 41 million subscribers. Hulu, one of the first streaming services, started as a joint venture between Disney, Comcast and Time Warner. It now offers programming from Disney's traditional television networks, including ABC and FX, in addition to original series, including 'Only Murders in the Building.' Hulu, which is profitable, has about 55 million subscriptions. To increase engagement on Disney+ and slow subscriber churn, Disney last year began allowing people who pay for both Disney+ and Hulu to watch both services through the Disney+ interface. That strategy has been a success for Disney, analysts have said. Some analysts expect Disney to eventually discontinue Hulu as a stand-alone app and make it a tile within Disney+.
