Forget about Freaky Friday, Family Switch is the new body-swapping comedy that is here just in time for the holiday season. Why just swap bodies with one person when it can be a family affair? That's the premise of the brand new movie starring Jennifer Garner dropping on Netflix.

Directed by McG (The Babysitter), Family Switch follows a mother, father, son, daughter, baby and dog as they find themselves swapping bodies with one another just in time for Christmas. So, what can you expect from Family Switch, who stars in the new Netflix movie and when is it out? Here's everything you need to know.

What is Family Switch about?

Here is the official synopsis from Netflix: "Jess and Bill Walker are doing their best to keep their family connected as their children grow older, more independent, and more distant. When a chance encounter with an astrological reader causes the family to wake up to a full body switch, on the morning of the most important day of each of their lives, can the Walkers unite to land a promotion, college interview, record deal and soccer tryout? Jennifer Garner, Ed Helms, Emma Myers and Brady Noon star in this family comedy directed by McG and based on the book Bedtime For Mommy by Amy Krouse-Rosenthal."
