EXCLUSIVE: Even colleagues of Jordan Helman have noticed an uptick in his mood lately. The head of scripted content at Hulu Originals can’t seem to hide his optimism about the upcoming Emmy season and how, for once, the conversation won’t be laser focused on whether The Handmaid’s Tale takes home another trophy. With its robust slate of originals, Hulu could earn multiple nominations for series such as Only Murders in the Building, Dopesick, Pam and Tommy, The Girl from Plainville and Nine Perfect Strangers.
“I’d be lying if I said we didn’t feel immensely bullish and proud of where we are and what we’ve accomplished, particularly over the course of the last year,” Helman tells Deadline. “We have curated a steady slate of critical and commercial darlings that have not only performed on the platform, but in several cases have really found themselves at the center of the cultural conversation. Within a matter of months, specifically on the limited side, we launched Dopesick, Pam and Tommy, The Dropout and The Girl from Plainville, all of which found sizable audiences and all of which broke through the noise of an uber-crowded landscape. We’re launching Candy this coming Monday and we’re launching Conversation with Friends shortly thereafter. We’re in a really great place creatively, and we’re genuinely thrilled by what we have coming down the pike. It really feels like there’s an embarrassment of riches. We’re excited to see how the voters react to those titles.”
Here, Helman talks about Hulu’s legacy, what sets it apart from other streamers, and the status of some of its high-profile projects. (The interview has been edited for length and clarity).
