We've asked Hulu if it can comment on the report.

If the leak is accurate, a deal wouldn't come out of left field. Streaming services have been snapping up more than a few fan-favorite TV shows in a bid to attract their viewership, and Veronica Mars wouldn't be an exception. While the original private investigator series only ran for three seasons, demand was so strong for a follow-up that the crowdfunded 2014 movie nearly tripled its funding goal. A sufficiently large fan base is already there -- Hulu would just have to give the crowd what it wants.
