New year, new Hulu! As the streamer welcomes in dozens of new and classic titles this January, including its new whodunit series “Death and Other Details,” it will first have to say goodbye to the old.
A few titles have already been removed from the library so far this month, including the hit samurai thriller “13 Assassins,” but over the next few weeks of January, dozens more titles will be leaving the platform, including the beloved baseball coming-of-age comedy “The Sandlot,” several Christmas classics, and the 1996 box office buster “Twister.”
Don’t miss your last chance to watch— fill up your watch list with The Streamable’s top picks (and everything else) for what’s leaving Hulu this month!
What are the 5 Best Shows and Movies Leaving Hulu in January 2024?
“Apollo 11” | Wednesday, Jan. 31
“Dinosaur 13” director Todd Douglas Miller picks another number with “Apollo 11,” an up-close look at the historic 1969 mission— all thrills, no frills. Consisting exclusively of archival footage and audio recordings, including previously unreleased 70 mm film, with no narration, interviews, or modern recreations, the documentary shows the inner workings of the mission as Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Michael Collins, and Apollo program Earth-based mission operations engineers embark on their trip to the moon.

“Home Alone” | Wednesday, Jan. 31
Now on the other side of the holiday season, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York and “Home Alone 3” will also leave the platform at the end of the month, but first say farewell to where it all started. Macaulay Culkin leads the classic (a live-action “Looney Tunes” of sorts) as eight-year-old Kevin McCallister, who, after getting accidentally left behind when his whole family goes to Paris for Christmas, must defend his family home against a pair of burglars (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern). Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.

“Nightride” | Wednesday, Jan. 31
A real-time single-take shot film is a feat unto itself, but first-time screenwriter Ben Conway’s Belfast crime thriller has a script that holds up to the gimmick. Moe Dunford leads the cast as a small-time criminal who tries to pull off one last drug deal with cash he borrowed from a dangerous loan shark, but when the handover goes catastrophically wrong, he finds himself in a race against time to locate his missing product and get a new buyer. Joana Ribeiro, Stephen Rea, Aaron McCusker, Desmond Eastwood, Andrew Simpson, Gerard Jordan, and more fill out the cast.

“The Sandlot” | Wednesday, Jan. 31
Call it schmaltzy or whatever, but the boys of Summer 1962 will likely be winning hearts for-ev-er. Thomas Guiry leads the ensemble coming-of-age comedy as Scottie Smalls, who moves to a new neighborhood and makes friends with the local sandlot baseball kids. Mike Vitar, Patrick Renna, Chauncey Leopardi, Marty York, Brandon Quintin Adams, Grant Gelt, Victor DiMattia, Shane Obezsinski, Karen Allen, Denis Leary, and James Earl Jones round out the roster.

“Second Best” | Wednesday, Jan. 31
David Cook adapts his 1991 novel of the same name for the 1994 melodrama starring William Hurt stars as Graham Holt, a reclusive Welsh postal worker who lives with his terminally ill father and, knowing he will soon be alone, decides to adopt a son. As a single man who is only offered the most “troubled” children available, he begins a visitation period with volatile young James (Chris Clearly Miles), whose mother committed suicide and whose father is serving time in jail.
