Love, Simon Series Moves from Disney Plus to Hulu

One of my most anticipated Disney Plus series is on the move. Love Simon was originally set to air on the mouse company’s streaming service but will now launch on Hulu instead. In addition, it will now be titled Love Victor and will focus

on Victor (Michael Cimino), a new student at Creekwood High School — the same high school as the movie — on his own journey of self-discovery, facing challenges at home, adjusting to a new city, and struggling with his sexual orientation.

The 10-episode first season will debut on Hulu in June, which is Pride Month. It was also reported first by Variety, that the folks at  Disney felt many issues explored on the show, including alcohol use and sexual exploration, would not fit in with the family-friendly content on Disney Plus.
