Disney is ready to break that promise, and with it, break the trust of thousands, maybe millions of families. 

Disney is preparing to merge Hulu’s full catalog into Disney+, bringing hundreds of R-rated movies and mature-audience shows directly into the platform parents intentionally chose for children.

This isn’t what families signed up to see.

Parents didn’t choose Disney+ by accident.

Market research shows Disney+ is the only major streaming service parents intentionally select for kids and family viewing. It built trust by keeping adult content separate—placing it on Hulu instead.

Now Disney plans to remove that separation entirely.

If this migration happens, Disney+ could see:

• Over a 2,000% increase in R-rated movies
• An 800% increase in mature-audience TV series
• Adult-themed titles appearing alongside family programming

Families who bundled Hulu and Disney+ already experienced this shift when mature shows appeared on Disney+ home screens without warning.

This is a betrayal of trust.

Disney built its streaming success on the promise of safe family entertainment.

Parents organized household media habits around that promise. Children were given access to Disney+ because it was supposed to be different.

Changing this now, without clear boundaries or safeguards, breaks that trust.
