The streaming service Hulu, which has gained clout thanks to shows like The Handmaid’s Tale, is now worth about US$8.7bil (RM33.85bil). But that remains a small fraction of Netflix Inc’s value. 

Walt Disney Co laid out the valuation of Hulu as part of a filing Wednesday about its planned merger with 21st Century Fox Inc. Disney is buying most of Fox’s entertainment assets in a US$52.4bil (RM203.91bil) all-stock deal, which would include taking control of Hulu.
