Searchlight Sends Three Direct To Hulu
Searchlight Pictures

Searchlight Pictures (formerly Fox Searchlight) is sending three of its upcoming films direct to Hulu in the U.S. and on Star on Disney+ internationally this Summer.

The announcement follows in the wake of 20th Century Studios revealing their plan to send much of both their own slate and Searchlight’s slate directly to Hulu/Star from now on with only a handful of titles each year getting theatrical runs.

“Spa Night” director Andrew Ahn’s new rom-com “Fire Island,” starring Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang in what’s described as a gay version of “Pride and Prejudice,” will hit June 3rd.

Sophie Hyde’s sex comedy “Good Luck to You, Leo Grande” starring Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack, in the story of a retired school teacher who hires a young sex worker, hits June 17th.

Quinn Shephard’s “And Not Okay,” starring Zoey Deutch as a wannabe influencer who gets caught up in a major lie following an incident in Paris, will arrive August 5th. Mia Isaac and Dylan O’Brien co-star.
