The movies leaving Hulu this month
With May typically marking a definitive shift into warmer weather, many of us are now switching out our winter wardrobes to prepare for the upcoming summer season. But as you’re packing away your sweaters and scarves, just know you’re not the only one preparing for change this month. Hulu is also getting ready to pack some of its content away—the streaming platform will be removing 23 movies in May 2025.
There are many reasons why a movie might leave Hulu—its popularity may not justify the cost of licensing it, or the rights may no longer be available, for example. Whatever the reason, you may want to go ahead and watch some of these movies before they’re gone.
If you’re a ’90s kid or a “Clueless” fan, you may be wondering what Alicia Silverstone has been up to these days. Unfortunately, you’re short on time to see some of her latest work on Hulu. Silverstone’s 2021 sci-fi thriller “Last Survivors,” where she plays a woman in a post-apocalyptic world, will be swiped from the streamer on May 4. Then, a few weeks later, “The Requin,” a 2022 horror-thriller that features Silverstone as one-half of a couple fighting for survival after getting stranded at sea, is disappearing from Hulu on May 27.
A few more 2022 films are also leaving the platform in May 2025. Hulu will lose “Both Sides of the Blade,” the 2022 French romantic thriller about a woman (Juliette Binoche) whose life spirals out of control when she reconnects with an ex, on May 3. Soon after, on May 10, Hulu also plans to say goodbye to the 2022 comedy “Bar Fight!,” which sees Melissa Fumero (of “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” fame) and Luka Jones (who starred on “Shrill”) play a former couple who battle for the rights to continue to patronize their favorite local bar.
Wondering what other movies will no longer be on Hulu once the month is over? Stacker compiled a list of the movies leaving Hulu in May 2025 using data from Reelgood. IMDb ratings and other data points were added for supplementary insights.
