The Circle Shifts from Netflix to Hulu, Returns to Atlanta for New Season

The Circle, known for its social media‑based competition, will now air on Hulu instead of Netflix. The shift follows the show's growing popularity and Hulu's interest in expanding its original content library.
Production will resume in Atlanta, where the series previously filmed its first season. Filming is expected to begin in early summer, with a schedule that will see the cast and crew return to the city’s studios.
Hulu has secured exclusive streaming rights for the new season, which will feature updated formats and new contestants. The move is part of Hulu's strategy to attract binge‑watch audiences.
Fans can anticipate the premiere later this year, with Hulu announcing the exact release date in the coming weeks. The Circle's transition to Hulu marks a significant shift in the streaming landscape for reality‑drama series.
