December 2024 is a bit slow on Hulu, with no major new original series or film premieres. But there are still some originals to look forward to, including the continuation of the service’s new stand-up comedy initiative, plus Korean supernatural drama “Light Shop,” about a group of strangers with a shared mystical secret.
On the true-crime front, the fourth season of docu-series “Wild Crime” covers the disappearance of an 18-year-old barista in Alaska. The “CMA Country Christmas” special, featuring holiday-themed performances by stars like Ashley McBryde, Amy Grant, Jon Pardi and Trisha Yearwood, premieres on Hulu the day after airing on ABC. Horror movie “Cuckoo” and senior citizen comedy “Summer Camp” make their streaming debuts following their theatrical releases.
Other highlights this month include an international action series and an acclaimed documentary feature. Right now, a Black Friday deal is giving you Hulu's ad-supported plan for a mere $1 a month.
NEW ON HULU IN DECEMBER 2024: TOP PICKS
‘Paris Has Fallen’
So many things have fallen in the “Has Fallen” series of movies starring Gerard Butler, including the White House, the city of London and Butler’s Secret Service agent character Mike Banning himself. Although he’s credited as a producer, Butler doesn’t appear in this new international spin-off of the popular franchise, but the bombastic action style of the movies should carry over to the eight-episode series.
When a former French Foreign Legion member (Sean Harris) stages terrorist attacks throughout Paris, a French police officer (Tewfik Jallab) and a British MI6 agent (Ritu Arya) team up to stop him and uncover the extent of his elaborate plan for revenge. Harris successfully played a similarly diabolical mastermind in the “Mission: Impossible” movies, and “Paris Has Fallen” aims for that kind of blockbuster energy on its more modest TV scale.

‘Sugarcane’
This documentary feature film from Nat Geo received a limited theatrical release over the summer, and now is making its streaming premiere just in time for awards season. The debut from filmmakers Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie was already nominated for eight Critics Choice Documentary Awards and won two, and it’s one of the frontrunners for a Best Documentary Feature Film Oscar nomination.
“Sugarcane” tells the harrowing story of abuse suffered by children sent to institutions in the Canadian Indian residential school system, via the case of unmarked graves discovered in 2021 at one facility run by the Catholic Church. Those children were separated from their families, stripped of their cultural identity, and often horribly mistreated. The filmmakers examine the impact of the decades-long injustice, and how it reverberates into the present.

‘Ilana Glazer: Human Magic’
Hulu is going all-in on its push for more stand-up comedy programming (dubbed Hularious), recruiting big names like Jim Gaffigan, Bill Burr and “Broad City” co-creator and co-star Ilana Glazer. Glazer already worked with Hulu on the 2021 original movie “False Positive,” which she co-wrote and starred in. Now she’s moving her stand-up to Hulu as well, after premiering her last special on Prime Video.
The announcement for “Human Magic” promises that Glazer will cover subjects ranging “from painfully awkward high school years to navigating parenthood as a stoner mom,” and her work has always drawn on her personal life, including the uncomfortable comedy of “Broad City” and the unnerving suspense of “False Positive.” As one of the first comedians under the Hularious brand, Glazer can set the tone for the streaming service’s approach to stand-up specials.
