· Entertainment · Android Authority, Reuters, Engadget
Disney Plus Premium could soon cost over $21 a month, with the ad-free plan increasing 13% from $18.99 to $21.49 per month. Hulu's ad-free plan is also reportedly rising from $18.99 to $21.49 per month, while ad-supported plans for both services will increase by only $0.50 to $12.49. Subscribers could be notified as early as September 23, 2026, though the effective date of the new prices remains unclear. The price hike comes less than a year after the previous increase, which took effect in October 2025, potentially adding $66 annually for the same subscription.
Why it matters
Subscribers to Disney Plus and Hulu in India and globally will face higher monthly costs for ad-free streaming, increasing their entertainment expenses. The change may prompt users to reconsider their subscription tiers or explore alternative platforms, especially if ad-supported options remain relatively affordable.
