Disney has consolidated ownership of Hulu, boosting its streaming portfolio. The Burbank giant will pay Comcast more than $9 billion for its stake in the streaming service behind "Only Murders in the Building.

Disney said it had agreed to add $439 million to what it had already paid for the streaming service. Comcast had wanted $5 billion more.

The Bob Iger-run entertainment giant agreed to buy the 33 percent stake in Hulu in 2023; after an extended appraisal process, the deal is finally set to close.
