The body swap trope is a classic. It's an effective tool to quite literally put yourself in someone else's shoes, but it's never been done on the scale of Netflix's Family Switch. This holiday season, a Christmas miracle takes over the Walker family when every member of the family, down to the dog and the baby, swap bodies. In an interview with Collider's Steve Weintraub, 13 Going on 30-star Jennifer Garner and her co-star, Wednesday's Emma Myers, sit down to talk about their family comedy.
The Walkers are a busy family. Nevertheless, Jess (Garner) and Bill (Ed Helms) are determined to reconnect with their children, CC (Myers) and Wyatt (Brady Noon), but the harder they try, the more strain it causes. It would take a miracle for this family to see eye-to-eye, and that's just what happens when a mysterious astrological reader sets a magical journey into motion. On one of the most important days of their lives - a promotion, record deal, college interview, and soccer tryout - they'll have to figure out how to work as a family before it's too late.
In their interview, Myers and Garner share what it's like maneuvering a body swap comedy and how close together it brought the cast, performing with Weezer, and preparing for a car chase sequence. Myers also talks about returning for Season 2 of her other Netflix project, Wednesday, opposite Jenna Ortega, and Garner plays coy about the Elektra rumors in Deadpool 3.
