Jennifer Garner To Star in Netflix Body Switch Comedy 'Family Leave'

This sounds like so much fun.

Jennifer Garner has secured her next film role and it reminds us of Freaky Friday.

The Golden Globe award winning actress will star in and produce Family Leave, a Netflix family comedy inspired by New York Times bestselling author Amy Krouse Rosenthal's book Bedtime For Mommy.

The film sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun - the plot centres on the Brenners, who wake up to a full family body switch and quickly realise the same thing has happened to a family on the other side of the world.

Awkward!

They must unite with this group of strangers and determine how to undo the switch, all while hilariously navigating daily life in a different body before it is too late.

We don't currently know when Family Leave will hit Netflix. But if you're a Jennifer Garner fan, you won't have to wait long to see her next project.

Jennifer is starring as Allison Torres in the Netflix film Yes Day, a comedy film that is also based on a novel by Amy Krouse Rosenthal.

Yes Day follows the Torres family - including Édgar Ramírez as Jennifer's movie husband Carlos - as they give their children a 'yes day'. For 24 hours, their children get to make the all the rules.

Little did they know that they'd end up going on a whirlwind adventure around Los Angeles, that would bring the family closer to each other than ever before.

Yes Day drops March 12 on Netflix. You can watch the trailer below:

Jennifer is starring alongside Ryan Reynolds, Zoe Saldana and Mark Ruffalo in the sci-fi film The Adam project, also for Netflix.

The Adam Project tells the story of a man who travels back in time to help his younger self confront his late father.
