It seems unfathomable how quickly summer is moving, but it's true: August is shortly upon us. And with the arrival of a new month comes a fresh wave of film titles and television shows to the industry's top streaming services. And as two of the biggest names in the streaming game, both Hulu and Disney+ will unsurprisingly welcome a hot batch of buzzy and brilliant new shows and movies to their already extensive selections this month.
Over on Disney+, August sees the very long-awaited (we're talking more than 15 years, ya'll) arrival of a new "Camp Rock" movie for the kiddos and the kids at heart. For more adult viewers, there's a new season of animated favorite "Futurama," as well as a pulpy new prep-school program from the Ryan Murphy camp, based on the 2023 horror novel by Bret Easton Ellis.
Want to see what else is hitting the platform? Keep reading to check out our top picks and the full list of everything new on Hulu and Disney+ this month.
New on Hulu and Disney+ in August 2026: Top picks
'Futurama' season 14
The folks behind the long-running animated sitcom — which follows a New York City pizza delivery boy (voiced by Billy West) who accidentally freezes himself in 1999 and gets defrosted in the year 3000 to find himself surrounded by hard-drinking robots, lovely cyclops and the like — promise "a non-stop onslaught of swaggering space pirates, lab-grown meats and sexy scams" in the upcoming fourteenth season of "Futurama," which premieres with two episodes on Monday, August 3. (Episodes will then be released one-at-a-time every subsequent Monday.) Along with West, the original voice cast will be back, including Katey Segal and John DiMaggio.
Stream on Hulu beginning August 3
'The Shards'
Based on Bret Easton Ellis' semi-autobiographical novel of the same name, FX's "The Shards" comes courtesy of Ellis himself as well as Ryan Murphy, so you know some campy TV fun is in your future if you choose to tune into the new teen thriller. Premiering August 5 on Hulu, the 1980s-set series follows a group of privileged high school seniors at an elite Los Angeles prep school whose universe gets rattled by a mysterious new student, Robert Mallory (Homer Gere), whose arrival unsettlingly coincides with the activities of a serial killer known as The Trawler. The cast also includes Kaia Gerber, Wes Bentley, Graham Campbell, Hayes Warner and Igby Rigney as Bret Easton Ellis.

'Camp Rock 3'
OG "Camp Rock" fans are now well and grown, but they can introduce a whole new generation to the movie-musical franchise with the long-awaited sequel "Camp Rock 3," which arrives 16 years in the making (yes, 16!) on August 14. The latest chapter of the trilogy sees original stars Jonas Brothers and Maria Canals-Barrera reprise their roles from the previous films, starring alongside Sherry Cola, Liamani Segura, and Malachi Barton.
When the opening act for Connect 3 cancels at the last minute, the band decides to return to their beloved Camp Rock and host a competition to find new talent to join their national tour. Talented campers are soon ruthlessly vying for the chance to join the group's reunion tour, testing friendships, stoking tensions and leading to unexpected alliances.
