Hannah Berner is joining the lineup of Hulu‘s “Hularious” banner with a new stand-up comedy special set at the streamer.

While the title and synopsis of the special are not yet known, it will be directed by Jeff Tomsic and produced by Rotten Science. Berner will serve as an executive producer along with Matthew Vaughan via Rotten Science and Tomsic. The special will premiere in 2026 and will stream on Hulu as well as Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers in the U.S. Internationally, it will stream on Disney+.

Berner is well known for her two podcasts — “Giggly Squad,” which she co-hosts with Paige DeSorbo, and “Berner Phone,” co-hosted with her husband Des Bishop — and has gained popularity for comedic man-on-the-street interviews called “Han on the Street” that she posts on social media. In 2023, she was named to Variety‘s list of 10 Comics to Watch, and in 2024, Netflix released her debut stand-up special “We Ride at Dawn.”

She is repped by Entertainment 360, WME, Hansen, Jacobson, Teller, Hoberman, Newman, Warren, Richman, Rush, Kaller, Gellman, Meigs & Fox, L.L.P and The Lede Company.

Berner joins a growing list of comedians taking their talents to Hulu, which debuted its Hularious banner in November 2024 with Jim Gaffigan’s stand-up special “The Skinny.” In addition to Gaffigan, the Hularious lineup has included Ilana Glazer, Roy Wood Jr., Chris Distefano, Bill Burr, Jessica Kirson, Matteo Lane, Atsuko Okatsuka, Zarna Garg, Ralph Barbosa, Andrew Santino, Frankie Quiñones, Sebastian Maniscalco and Kumail Nanjiani, with specials from Lisa Ann Walter and Nikki Glaser to come.
