Of course, this is part of a larger deal that Hulu has with Neon, the studio that has distribution rights for Parasite. The deal between the two goes back to 2017 and it has already landed a bunch of their films to Hulu, like I, Tonya, or Three Identical Strangers.
Neon has the rights for Parasite in North America after acquiring them from CJ Entertainment in South Korea. The film has been wildly successful this award season, grabbing four Academy Awards (best picture, international film, best director, original screenplay), one Golden Globe (best foreign-language film), one SAG Award (outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture), and more. In total, it had 300 nominations across the globe and won 185 of those awards.
For its part, Hulu is going to present Parasite to over 30 million subscribers, thus giving the film even more exposure.
