The Swap
Directed by Ron Oliver, Jay Karas
Produced by Original Pictures, MarVista Entertainment
A lighthearted body-swap comedy aimed at young audiences that uses mistaken identity and physical comedy to explore empathy and understanding between two competitive teens.
Based on the book by Megan Shull, The Swap follows the adventures of a rhythmic gymnast named Ellie with a make-it-or-break-it competition, and the younger brother named Jack in a hockey family who's vying for a varsity spot on his school team. But when a simple text causes the two to swap bodies, their paths take an unexpected cross.
