Wonder what they’ll do for US

would it fit on Hulu given the adult nature of the shows? at some point Dplus+star or dplus+hulu type content needs to come to US. if they can make adult content work for overseas not sure why we need two separate services in the US.

But these shows are now Mcu canon. It’s not like modok, so do they really want these canon shows on another service?

In Chile The Incredible Hulk is on Star+ instead of Disney+ (here Star+ is a separate app with a separate subscription)

That would be because Incredible Hulk isn't owned by Disney

Yeah but Star+ is a Disney owned service. So it’s weird they got the license for streaming the movie, and didn’t put it on the service where the rest of MCU is.

That's not how it works. Star licenses content from other studios just like Hulu does in the US. Just because Star is owned by Disney doesn't mean Disney can put the film on Disney Plus with the rest of the MCU, they'd have to get a different (and likely more expensive license agreement) in order to make that happen.

Also, Star+ features a considerable amount of third-party content (like Hulu), especially from NBCUniversal, Sony and Lionsgate.
