Production

[edit]

In February 2018, it was announced that Nathan Greno had signed a multi-year contract with Skydance Media to write and direct an animated film provisionally titled Powerless, as well as consult on projects in development.[2] In January 2019, Skydance Animation hired former Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios CCO John Lasseter as head of Animation.[3] The project reunited Lasseter with Greno, who had previously co-directed Tangled (2010) under Lasseter's leadership at Walt Disney Animation Studios.[4] In April 2020, Greno's film was revealed to be retitled to Pookoo.[5] In October 2023, Siddhartha Khosla was revealed to be composing the film's score.[1] In October 2025, Skydance Animation Madrid's VP of Finance and Operations, Carolina Borreguero Sanz, confirmed that the studio had delivered the film, which had been retitled from Pookoo to Swapped.[6][7][8] Michael B. Jordan and Juno Temple were revealed as cast members the following month.[9] In January 2026, Tracy Morgan and Cedric the Entertainer were revealed as cast members.[10] That same month, Tim Mertens, editor of Wreck-It Ralph (2012), was revealed to be the editor of Swapped.[11]

Release

[edit]

Swapped was originally intended to be released on Apple TV+, but in October 2023, Netflix took over the film's distribution rights from Apple, as part of a new multi-year deal with Skydance Animation, while setting it for a 2025 release.[1] In June 2025, Netflix announced that the film would premiere in 2026.[12][13][10] The film was screened in its only theatrical release at the Sebastiani Theatre in Sonoma on January 9, 2026, ahead of its release on Netflix later in the year.[11]

Marketing

[edit]

In June 2024, a first look of a rendered image from the film was released in Netflix's Next on Netflix: Animation 2024 presentation.[14] In June 2025, Netflix revealed a second rendered image at the Annecy Film Festival.[13]
