Family Switch is a holiday movie like no other! Plus, there’s a twist. We’ve gotten some classic films like Freaky Friday that revolve around a body switching storyline. But maybe not one quite like this. Get ready for Family Switch, coming to Netflix Thursday, Nov. 30, 2023!
The main cast members of the comedy Family Switch are Jennifer Garner as Jess Walker, Ed Helms as Bill Walker, Brady Noon as Wyatt Walker, Emma Myers as CC Walker. Rita Moreno as Angelica, Matthias Schweighöfer as Rolf, and more also star.
The story is centered around the Walker family, led by patriarch Bill and matriarch Jess. The two parents are trying their hardest to keep their family close as their kids are getting “older, more independent, and more distant,” per the synopsis. After a chance encounter with astrological reader Angelica, everyone in the house wakes up in each other’s bodies. Even baby Miles and the dog have body swapped!
This couldn’t have come at a worse time as this happens on the “most important day” for each of the family members is here – a promotion at work, a record deal, a college interview, and a soccer tryout. Plus, you don’t want the baby eating dog food! Can the family get along to figure out how to reverse it all? We’ll find out soon!
