Hit television author and producer Ryan Murphy is planning to depart Netflix to hitch Walt Disney, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, citing people conversant in the matter.
Murphy is understood for his creation of hits from “Glee” to “9-1-1” and “American Horror Story” and serial-killer series “Dahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story,” which became one in every of Netflix’s most-watched series of all time.
He left Fox in 2018 to hitch Netflix in a five-year deal valued as high as $300 million to supply a latest series and film exclusively for the web giant.
Competition has been intensifying between streaming corporations as they put money into original content and check out to face out in a crowded market and attract subscribers to their platforms.
The TV show creator has been negotiating a latest cope with Disney over the past 12 months.
Most of the main points were ironed out before the writers’ strike began in May, the report added.

Previous honorees were Burnett, Ellen DeGeneres and Norman Lear.
Disney and Netflix didn’t immediately reply to Reuters’ requests for comment.
