Imagine waking up in your enemy’s body. Now imagine that enemy is a completely different species. That’s the hilariously chaotic premise of **Swapped**, Netflix’s brand-new animated family comedy arriving on **May 1, 2026** — and if the voice cast alone doesn’t sell you on it, the story absolutely will.

### What’s the Story?

A small woodland mammal and a majestic bird — two natural sworn enemies of The Valley — accidentally magically swap bodies after crashing into a magical plant, and set off on an adventure of a lifetime while bonding together and helping the woodland animals. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swapped)

Think *Freaky Friday* meets a breathtaking wildlife documentary. After the body-swap mishap, Ollie and Ivy are stuck in each other’s worlds, forced to team up, deal with all the dangers of the ecosystem, and survive a bizarre journey that gradually changes their viewpoints and requires them to join forces. The story carries themes of empathy, cooperation, and seeing the world through someone else’s eyes — wrapped in an adventure comedy that works equally well for kids and adults.

The film is a [body swap](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_swap) narrative at its core, but its wild ecosystem setting — where creatures of the valley exist on a spectrum between plant and animal — makes it feel unlike anything audiences have seen in the genre before.
