Is there Spanish on Hulu?
In our check, Hulu had fewer Spanish-language films than Prime Video, but it carries several Spanish-language series. Some of its English shows also offer a Spanish audio option you can switch on in the player. Audio options vary by title, so check the menu. Most of what Hulu offers in Spanish is series, which is still useful listening practice. These three are confirmed:
- El Señor de los Cielos (2013, series). A long-running Mexican drama. Level: B2 to C1.
- Pedro el escamoso: más escamoso que nunca (2024, series). A Colombian comedy. Level: B1 to B2.

Hulu also streams Santa Evita and El encargado, which are listed under Disney+ below.

- Santa Evita (2022, series). An Argentine drama about Eva Perón. Also on Hulu. Level: B2 to C1.
- El encargado (The Boss) (2022, series). An Argentine comedy about a building superintendent. Also on Hulu. Level: B2.

Coco, Encanto and The Book of Life were made in English. Many Disney+ titles offer other audio tracks, but options vary by title and device, so open the audio menu before you plan on Spanish. JustWatch does not list audio tracks for Disney+, so we have not confirmed it for each film.
How do I use streaming to actually improve my Spanish?
Use the three-pass method from our Netflix guide: watch a short scene with English subtitles, again with Spanish subtitles, then with none while you say a line out loud.

Frequently Asked Questions
Of these four, Prime Video had the widest mix in our check, with Mexican, Colombian, Argentine and Spanish titles. Max has strong films, and Disney+ and Hulu lean toward series. Netflix still has the biggest catalog, and we cover it in our separate Netflix guides.
Disney+ lets you change audio on many titles through the audio menu in the player. Coco is an English-language film, and JustWatch does not list Disney+ audio tracks, so check the menu on your device. If Spanish is there, choose it and use Spanish subtitles for practice.
Streaming licenses expire and get renewed on a schedule the services do not publish, so a film on Prime Video this month may leave next month. Our table is dated November 9, 2026. If a title is gone, search for it on JustWatch to see where it is streaming now.
Yes, in smaller amounts than on Netflix. Prime Video has Un extraño enemigo and Midnight Family, Hulu has El Señor de los Cielos, and Max has Cronos. Disney+ has Coco, which is set in Mexico but made in English. For the deepest Mexican list, use our Netflix guide.
Begin with a short scene from something you already know well, then move to Spanish-language series with Spanish subtitles. Betty La Fea and Pedro el escamoso, on Prime Video and Hulu, are light comedies and a gentler start than a thriller. Expect to rewind often while your ear builds speed.
Conclusion
Netflix is not your only option. Each of these four services has real Spanish to listen to, and a few Mexican titles. Pick one at your level, watch a scene three times and say it back.

SPANISH FLUENCY COACHING
Reading about Spanish is the easy part. Speaking it is where we come in.
Most adults who find this page already know a lot of Spanish and still freeze in real conversations. A coach works on that freeze directly: what stops you, what you need to say, and real practice until it comes out on its own.
