Werner Film Productions’ teen comedy series Crazy Fun Park has been acquired by Disney-owned streamer Hulu, making a US debut for the Australian production.

The series is scheduled to premiere in October as part of Hulu’s ‘Huluween’ programming streaming to its 48 million subscribers.

Crazy Fun Park premiered on the ABC in January and has now been acquired by broadcasters in Spain, Finland, Norway, Lithuania, Belgium, Slovenia, Taiwan, New Zealand and the UK on the BBC via global distributor ACTF.
