Hybrid density functional calculation is indispensable to accurate description of electronic structure, whereas the formidable computational cost restricts its broad application. Here we develop a deep equivariant neural network method (named DeepH-hybrid) to learn the hybrid-functional Hamiltonian from self-consistent field calculations of small structures, and apply the trained neural networks for efficient electronic-structure calculation by passing the self-consistent iterations. The method is systematically checked to show high efficiency and accuracy, making the study of large-scale materials with hybrid-functional accuracy feasible. As an important application, the DeepH-hybrid method is applied to study large-supercell Moir\'{e} twisted materials, offering the first case study on how the inclusion of exact exchange affects flat bands in the magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene.
