Their journey soon uncovers a greater threat—one that could endanger not only their species, but the entire valley they call home.

About Swapped

Swapped is a 2026 animated fantasy comedy film directed by Nathan Greno and written by John Whittington, Christian Magalhaes, and Robert Snow, who all co-wrote the story with Greno and Adam Karp. Produced by Skydance Animation, the film stars the voices of Michael B. Jordan, Juno Temple, Tracy Morgan, Cedric the Entertainer, and Justina Machado. The plot follows a small Pookoo named Ollie (Jordan) and a Javan named Ivy (Temple) who are accidentally transformed into each other's species, forcing them to work together when navigating life in each other's bodies to survive a series of adventures. Swapped was released on Netflix and select theaters on May 1, 2026. Although it received mixed reviews from critics, it became a huge success during its first week on Netflix, reaching 38 million views and outperforming KPop Demon Hunters, which previously claimed the spot from 2025-2026.
