Hulu is enhancing its December 2025 lineup with the addition of MGM+'s Godfather of Harlem and Disney+'s Percy Jackson and the Olympians, the latter featuring new episodes this month. These shows join a diverse selection of must-watch series available for streaming. Viewers can explore mythological adventures and historical crime drama during the holiday season.
New Additions to Hulu
In December 2025, Hulu has incorporated Godfather of Harlem from MGM+ and Percy Jackson and the Olympians from Disney+ into its streaming catalog for the holiday period. Percy Jackson and the Olympians, which premiered in 2023, introduces new episodes this month, allowing fans to continue Percy's journey. The series follows Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson, a demigod son of Poseidon played by Toby Stephens, who teams up with Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) and Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries) to recover Zeus's stolen thunderbolt and avert a divine war.
Godfather of Harlem, ongoing since 2019, stars Forest Whitaker as Bumpy Johnson, a Harlem crime boss returning from prison in the 1960s to reclaim his territory from the Italian mafia. He allies with Malcolm X (Nigél Thatch) against Vincent Gigante (Vincent D’Onofrio) amid the era's social upheavals.
Broader Context
This update comes as Hulu lacks a new original signature series for December but bolsters its offerings with these cross-platform arrivals. The platform's December lineup also includes ongoing favorites like The Bear, Shōgun, and Only Murders in the Building, providing varied genres from comedy to thriller. Percy Jackson draws from Rick Riordan's novels, offering a TV adaptation that contrasts with earlier films by promising a longer narrative arc. Both shows are now accessible on Hulu, catering to audiences seeking fresh content to end the year.
