The move unveiled by CEO Bob Iger may be a sign that the company isn't ready to part with the general entertainment service.

“The advertising potential of this combined platform is incredibly exciting,” Iger added.

The Disney exec had previously signaled a greater willingness to part with the streaming platform. Iger appeared on CNBC on Feb. 9, and spoke about Disney wanting to move away from “undifferentiated entertainment,” saying of Hulu: “Everything is on the table right now, so I am not going to speculate whether we are a buyer or a seller of it.”

The CEO doubled down on that at an investors conference in March, saying the company was continuing to evaluate the best options for Hulu.
