The former Fox executive will now report to Alan Bergman and Dana Walden as a new president of Hulu is expected to be named later.
In his new role, Earley will work with content teams across the company to expand streaming efforts, drive programming and engagement across Disney+ and Hulu. He will continue to lead Hulu until a successor is identified for the role. The news comes as Disney and NBCUniversal have been battling over the valuation of Hulu in the press. Disney retains a controlling stake in the streamer and has until 2024 to make a decision on whether to buy Comcast’s stake.
“Helping launch Disney+ was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Hulu has been inspiring and rewarding,” Earley said in a statement. “I’m incredibly grateful to Dana and Alan for their confidence and the opportunity to lead both of these incredible teams during this time of transformation and opportunity across the streaming landscape.”
Earley’s promotion comes two months after Walden and Bergman were handed oversight of streaming and international as part of a company-wide reorganization under CEO Bob Iger that returned business decisions back to creative execs and dismantled former CEO Bob Chapek’s divisive Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution division. At the time, Paull — who had served as head of streaming and helped launch ESPN+ — was moved to reporting to Kareem Daniel.
