TUBI ANNOUNCES FOUR FILM SLATE WITH HARTBEAT IN FIRST EXCLUSIVE CREATOR CONTENT DEAL

Four New Creator-Driven Films Will Debut on Tubi, Including "Sundown" Starring Kinigra Deon and "85 South: Dead End" Featuring DC Young Fly, Chico Bean and Karlous Miller

SAN FRANCISCO, October 29, 2025 - Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation's (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported streaming service, today announced its first-ever exclusive creator content slate as part of its Tubi for Creators program. In an expanded collaboration with Hartbeat, Kevin Hart's global multi-platform entertainment company, Tubi will debut four original, creator-driven films in 2026, led by Kinigra Deon, and DC Young Fly, Chico Bean, and Karlous Miller of "85 South Show." The partnership propels the next generation of diverse storytellers into the broader entertainment ecosystem while giving them the creative ownership and visibility to reach Tubi's 100 million monthly active users.

The multi-title deal kicks off with the film SUNDOWN, a supernatural thriller that was written, directed and stars the multi-hyphenate digital creator Kinigra Deon. The story follows a group of Black college friends who take a wrong turn into a racially hostile town where local myths turn terrifyingly real. The film 85 SOUTH: DEAD END features DC Young Fly, Chico Bean, and Karlous Miller in a satirical horror-comedy about a Southern road trip gone off the rails in a mysteriously offbeat town where no one ever leaves. Two additional films will be announced at a later date.

"At Tubi, we're building a space where emerging and established creators can bring bold, breakthrough ideas to life and reach new audiences on our platform," said Rich Bloom, General Manager, Creator Programs & Executive Vice President, Business Development at Tubi. "This first slate of exclusive titles under Tubi for Creators is an exciting milestone, and partnering with Hartbeat ensures we're working with top-tier talent and voices that truly reflect our diverse audience. We're proud to create a pathway for creators to break into Hollywood while staying true to their authentic voice."

"Hartbeat has always been about championing the creators who shape culture and move audiences," said Jeff Clanagan, President and Chief Distribution Officer at Hartbeat. "Through this partnership with Tubi, we're excited to give talent like Kinigra Deon, DC Young Fly, Chico Bean, and Karlous Miller the space to bring their authentic voices - and their audiences - to a global streaming platform that celebrates creator-driven storytelling, delivering smart, funny, and fresh films that reflect the culture."

Digital-first creator content on Tubi has now grown to nearly 10,000 titles, part of the platform's broader mission to champion new voices and expand access to Hollywood for emerging talent. This partnership, brokered by Jeff Clanagan at Hartbeat and Tubi's Sam Harowitz, marks an extension of the ongoing relationship, which previously brought a range of Hartbeat-produced TV series and films to the platform. Kinigra Deon is also one of the inaugural creators in the Tubi for Creators program, with her hit digital series like Vampire Siblings and College Life among the first creator‑led titles added to Tubi's content collection.
