THE KARDASHIANS have landed a MASSIVE new content deal to exclusively create shows for Hulu after KUWTK ends.
Fans of the the Kardashian-Jenner clan can breathe a sigh of relief as it was announced today that the reality TV favourites will continue to regularly feature on our screens.
Kris, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie will create global content, which will stream exclusively on Hulu in the US and in multiple territories on Star internationally.
The content is expected to debut in late 2021 and additional details will be shared when available.
The deal was announced at today’s Disney’s Investor Day, which this year is being livestreamed online.
The famous family broke hearts when they announced the show was coming to an end after 14 years.
It was later revealed the ladies were looking to follow in the footsteps of Harry and Meghan and sign a lucrative deal with a streaming service.
“There’s more money in streaming,” said a source. “And it’s global.”
E! had paid the family $150 million the last time they renewed their contract in 2017.
It comes after the lucrative deal made by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with Netflix, which is thought to be worth $147million.
Meghan and Prince Harry “shopped themselves around” for a big-money TV deal before settling on Netflix, the firm’s boss Reed Hastings revealed.
Kim Kardashian confirmed the show was ending via Instagram, writing it is with “heavy hearts” that they made the “difficult decision as a family to say goodbye to Keeping Up with the Kardashians.”
She shared: “After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and numerous spin-off shows, we are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years – through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children.
“We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way.
“Thank you to the thousands of individuals and businesses that have been a part of this experience and, most importantly, a very special thank you to Ryan Seacrest for believing in us, E! for being our partner, and our production team at Bunim/Murray, who’ve spent countless hours documenting our lives.
“Our last season will air early next year in 2021.”
