Hulu is a great streaming service for streaming new movies. Not only does it regularly add originals and classics to its library, but, because it's owned by Disney, it's the streaming home for new releases from several Disney-owned studios. It's the perfect place to start building your next movie marathon.
This weekend, I have three movies recently added to Hulu that are a must-watch. Some of these, like "Abraham's Boys" and "We Bury the Dead," are more recent and fit firmly in the horror genre. But if you need a laugh this weekend, don't worry. Hulu just added a comedy starring Kevin Hart and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson that will definitely have you laughing.
Here are the three new to Hulu movies you need to stream this weekend. For more recommendations, check out the full list of everything new to Hulu in May 2026.
'Central Intelligence' (2016)
Genre: Action comedy movie
What's it about? This buddy comedy stars Kevin Hart as Calvin "Golden Jet" Joyner, a former star high school athlete now living a mundane life as an accountant. It also stars Dwayne Johnson as Bob Stone, aka Robbie Weirdicht, a formerly nerdy kid who went to high school with Calvin but then got jacked and joined the CIA. Now, he needs Calvin's help to save the world from a terrorist who intends to sell top-secret satellite codes.
Why you need to watch it: If you like a fun movie with a bit of action that doesn't take itself too seriously, "Central Intelligence" is a perfect choice. Hart and Johnson work well together on screen, and the movie is undeniably funny.

'Abraham's Boys' (2025)
Genre: Horror movie
What's it about? "Abraham's Boys" is based on a novel of the same name that serves as a sequel to the novel Dracula. It's set 20 years after the legendary tale, centered around Mina Van Helsing (Jocelin Donahue), who, instead of marrying Jonathan Harker, married Dr. Abraham Van Helsing (Titus Welliver). They're now living in the California Central Valley with their two sons, Max and Rudy, but escaping to America won't allow Abraham to escape his past.
Why you should watch it: While this might seem like another vampire movie, it's not. The villain at the core of this film might not be an immortal figure from Transylvania, but instead a human who has spent their life trying to defeat these evil creatures.

'We Bury the Dead' (2025)
Genre: Zombie horror drama movie
What's it about? Daisy Ridley stars as Ava, a physiotherapist who is suddenly drawn into action when an American superweapon detonates off the Tasmanian coast. It not only destroys a city, but it renders the remaining inhabitants of the island brain dead (or undead!), potentially including Ava's husband Mitch.
Why you need to watch it: This movie is dark, with twists and turns you won't see coming. It's earned praise from most critics, particularly for Ridley's performance as Ava. It doesn't reinvent the zombie horror movie, but that doesn't mean it isn't a must-watch.
