With Keeping Up With the Kardashians coming to an end, fans are looking forward to the famous family making new content with Hulu.

Keeping Up With the Kardashians might be coming to an end, but that doesn’t mean we won’t be seeing them on our screens anymore.

The family have signed a deal with American streaming service Hulu, explaining they will be “creating global content,” but that’s the only detail that has really been revealed.

Hulu isn’t available in Australia but when the deal was signed, Kris Jenner expressed her excitement at the deal with “Hulu and Star”. Star is a Disney+ streaming add-on that will launch in Australia in February, although it is not yet confirmed the Kardashians’ new series will be available through the service.

Ryan Seacrest, who co-created and executive produced all of KUWTK has weighed in on what fans can expect.

“I think they have a lot of ideas and (will do) a lot of things that they may have not had a chance to do with Keeping Up with the Kardashians, because it was such a strong franchise and people wanted what they saw from the family. And that’s what they got for 20 seasons,” Ryan shared with People.

“So I have a feeling they have a stack of ideas,” Ryan continued. “My guess would be they want to evolve a little bit from the show that everybody has seen and do something differently. I’m sure it will definitely pique people’s interest, but I think it remains to be seen what exactly they will do.”

The new Hulu deal was announced during Disney’s Investor Day in December.

Disney’s press release simply stated: “Additional details will be shared when available.”

The series was teased in Hulu’s highlight reel and is expected to debut in late 2021.

Members of the family took to Twitter to celebrate the news at the time.

“Excited to announce our new multi-year partnership with Hulu and Star and what’s to come in 2021,” tweeted the family’s matriarch Kris Jenner.

Keeping Up With the Kardashians is coming to an end this year after its 20th season.

“It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” the family said. “After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and several spin-off shows, we’ve decided as a family to end this very special journey.”

At the time, Kim said, “This show made us who we are and I will be forever in debt to everyone who played a role in shaping our careers and changing our lives forever.”

The newest season is currently streaming on Binge.
