Another week of content comes to the paired streaming services of Disney+ and Hulu, and although it's a light one, we've still found new shows and movies worth your attention. If you missed Oscar-nominated Arco in theaters, here's your chance to catch it on streaming, along with the new season of Deli Boys and lots of content from network partners. The full list of content arriving on the streaming services is below.


This Week on Hulu and Disney+: PCMag's Picks

Arco (May 22, Hulu)

Nominated for Best Animated Feature at both the Oscars and the Golden Globes, Arco is visually stunning and totally engaging. Set in the year 2932, it follows young Arco, who isn't old enough to travel through time with his parents. When he steals a time travel cape to visit dinosaurs, he crashes in 2075, where a girl named Iris finds him and embarks on a wild adventure to get him home.

  • Director: Ugo Bienvenu
  • Cast: Natalie Portman, Will Ferrell, Mark Ruffalo
  • Genre: Animation
  • Rating: PG
  • IMDb Rating: 7.3/10

Descendent (May 26, Hulu)

We're always going to stand up for an ambitious low-budget movie, and 2025's Descendent fits the bill. It's a strange and ambiguous thriller about a school security guard who experiences what might be an alien encounter and is hospitalized while his wife is about to give birth to their first child. Nothing is quite as it seems as he channels bizarre drawings of his experience, but the question hangs over the whole movie: was any of it real? Definitely worth a watch.

  • Director: Peter Ciella
  • Cast: Ross Marquand, Sarah Bolger, Susan Wilder
  • Genre: Science Fiction
  • Rating: TV-MA
  • IMDB Rating: 4.8/10

Deli Boys: Season 2 (May 28, Hulu)

I'm psyched to see a second season for FX's charming and unpredictable Deli Boys. In the first season, layabout brothers Mir and Raj are thrown into the deep end when their convenience store owner father dies, and they discover that he was secretly running a massive drug empire that they're now responsible for. It's wickedly funny and brilliantly written, so catch up on S1 before the second season begins.

  • Cast: Asif Ali, Saagar Shaikh, Poorna Jagannathan
  • Genre: Comedy
  • Rating: TV-MA
  • IMDb Rating: 7.2/10
