Us video-on-demand service commissions series from Morgan Spurlock, Adrian Grenier and the Assassin's Creed creator

Us video-on-demand service Hulu has made its first ever TV network-style programming presentation to Us advertisers, unveiling original commissions from Morgan Spurlock, Entourage's Adrian Grenier and the creator of the popular video game franchise Assassin's Creed.

Hulu, the joint venture with partners including News Corporation, Disney and NBC Universal, has built its video streaming service on buying rights to exisiting TV shows but a 60% rise in revenue to $420m in 2011 has seen the company look to invest in its own content.

In its first appearance at the hugely important Us upfronts season, when TV broadcasters present new shows in New York and lock down billions of dollars in advertising deals, Hulu unveiled four new original commissions.

Thn’s Top Ten ‘Buddy Cop’ Films

16 March 2012 5:57 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

To compliment the release of 21 Jump Street in the UK, and because we thought it might make you feel warm and fuzzy inside, we’re taking a look back at some of the more prominent ‘buddy cop’ films to have entertained us over the years.

In The Heat Of The Night (1967) was arguably the first to fully adopt the ‘reluctant-but-unavoidable-partnership’ scenario that, in spite of its simplistic formula, is still a mainstay in the film industry today.

48 Hrs (1982)

One’s a hard boiled cop, one’s a wise-cracking criminal…

Walter Hill’s explosive comedy revolves around Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) and the criminal who is forced into his custody, Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy). The duo must put aside their differences in order to try and achieve a common goal: the capturing of a stone cold killer, Albert Ganz (James Remar).

48 Hrs marked the feature film debut of Eddie Murphy, »
