What's coming to Hulu in September 2026
September 2026 brings a massive wave of new content to Hulu and Hulu On Disney+. Whether you track what's available on streaming platforms or simply want to plan your watchlist ahead of time, this month deserves attention. We counted over 80 titles arriving throughout September, between originals, licensed films, and full season drops. Here's how to navigate it all.
Original series and major FX debuts to mark on your calendar
The biggest originals this month hit at different points in September, so timing matters. Chad Powers Season 2 drops in full on September 3rd. The premise gets more complicated : Russ's disguise as Chad is unraveling, Coach Hudson and Gerry are growing suspicious, and the only person who can keep the Catfish's College Football Playoff run alive is Ricky, who wants nothing to do with any of it. The comedy pressure cooker gets tighter this season.
Then on September 8th, FX launches The Drop : A Snowfall Saga, a direct spin-off from the acclaimed Snowfall series. It follows Wanda Bell (Gail Bean) and Leon Simmons (Isaiah John) as they try to rebuild their lives in 1990s Los Angeles. The backdrop : the aftermath of the crack epidemic and the explosive rise of West Coast rap. It's a specific, well-researched period that the original show handled with care, and this spin-off inherits that same foundation.
The three-episode premiere of American Horror Story : 13 lands on September 24th. After more than a decade of reinventing horror television, from the murder house to the apocalypse, Ryan Murphy's anthology series returns with its thirteenth installment. The official teaser promises familiar iconography alongside new terrors. We're watching this one closely, given how divisive recent seasons have been.

Several titles are also available in Spanish-language versions, including Burlesque, Moneyball, and Pineapple Express, which broadens the platform's accessibility considerably.
TV series, documentaries and international content
Beyond the originals, the catalog additions for TV series are substantial. Here's a quick overview of key drops by date :
| Date | Title | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Sept. 2 | Queen of the South : Complete Seasons 1–5 | Drama series |
| Sept. 8 | Law & Order : SVU, Season 27 | Procedural |
| Sept. 12 | Suzume (Subbed & Dubbed) | Anime film |
| Sept. 12 | Sister Wives, Season 20 | Reality TV |
| Sept. 21 | Wicked (2024) | Film |
| Sept. 24 | American Horror Story : 13 (3-ep premiere) | Horror anthology |
On the documentary and true crime side, September delivers consistently. Casey Anthony : An American Murder Mystery and Susan Powell : An ID Murder Mystery both drop on September 12th. The 9/11 : United We Stand, 25 Years Later special arrives on September 2nd, marking a significant anniversary. International content includes the complete first seasons of Alguien Mas, Promesas de Campana, and Honey Lemon Soda (dubbed), plus A Sign of Affection (dubbed) and 100 Nights of Hero.
Reality fans get My 600-lb Life seasons across multiple drop dates, Naked and Afraid of Love Season 1 on September 5th, and Tournament of Champions spread across two separate drops (Seasons 4 and 5/7). For those tracking the Vanderpump Villa season 3 reunion special, that's another Hulu and Disney+ title to keep an eye on this fall.
How to get the most out of Hulu's September lineup
Not every title available on Hulu will be accessible through Hulu On Disney+, due to licensing restrictions. This is worth checking before you plan your viewing through the bundle. We always recommend verifying availability directly for any specific title, especially for licensed films that tend to vary by region and rights holder.
If you're prioritizing originals, the clearest must-watches are Chad Powers Season 2 (Sept. 3), The Drop : A Snowfall Saga (Sept. 8), and American Horror Story : 13 (Sept. 24). For film lovers, the September 1st library drop alone could fill two weekends. And if anime is your thing, both Suzume on September 12th and Jujutsu Kaisen 0 on September 30th make this a genuinely strong month for the format on the platform.
The sheer volume this month is uncommon even by Hulu's usual standards. Tracking everything across release dates is the smartest way to avoid missing titles that disappear quietly into a crowded catalog.
