Disney has a new head of streaming.

The latest shakeup in the streaming industry has Hulu president Joe Earley replacing Michael Paull as Disney’s direct-to-consumer president, a role that oversees Disney Plus, ESPN Plus, and Hulu.

There isn’t any word on who will take over for Earley just yet, as Disney says he’ll keep leading Hulu until they find a replacement. Earley first joined Disney in 2019 to help launch Disney Plus and became the president of Hulu last year.
