Netflix officially finds its Kpop Demon Hunters replacement — but there’s a catch
Netflix’s animated film KPop Demon Hunters, which debuted in June 2025, held the record as the streaming platform’s most-watched movie—surpassing high-profile live-action releases like Red Notice. However, the title has now been dethroned by a new animated competitor: Swapped, directed by Nathan Greno.
Swapped is a body-swap animated comedy starring Michael B. Jordan and Juno Temple as voice actors for a woodland pookoo named Ollie and a regal Javan bird named Ivy. The film follows the pair’s mishaps after a magical pod causes them to swap bodies, with comparisons drawn to the premise of Freaky Friday.
While Swapped has currently claimed the top position on Netflix’s viewing charts, the article notes uncertainty about whether the new film will maintain the sustained popularity that KPop Demon Hunters demonstrated over its year-long reign at the top.
