Netflix’s “The Circle” will head to Hulu with a new edition of the competition series ordered by the Disney-owned streamer that will feature celebrity players and embody the fast turnaround of “Love Island.”
While “The Circle” ran on Netflix for seven seasons, the streamer hadn’t renewed the series since its seventh installment aired in October 2024. In the meantime, Hulu nabbed the rights to the series from producer Studio Lambert, which is behind Peacock’s buzzy “The Traitors,” with plans to revamp the series.
In the new version ordered by Hulu, the series will feature celebrity contestants playing alongside everyday players “in a game of popularity where identity is ever-changing and anyone can be anyone,” per the official logline.

Similar to Peacock’s “Love Island USA,” the game will be filmed in real time as it introduces audience voting for the first time in the U.S., giving viewers the ability to shape the game as it unfolds.
