In Netflix's The Family Switch, members of the Grammy Award-winning band Weezer make surprise appearances in the holiday film, giving Collider's Steve Weintraub the opportunity to chat with Rivers Cuomo and Brian Bell. Check out the full interview for their experience on set and their epic plans for Weezer (The Blue Album)'s 30th anniversary coming up next year!
Starring Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms, Family Switch puts a holiday spin on the body swap trope when it introduces viewers to the chaotic Walker family. Between college interviews, promotions at work, tryouts for the U.S. national soccer team, and Bill's (Helms) big performance with his cover band, there's been very little time to spend on each other. In the days leading up to the holidays, however, Jess (Garner) and Bill put their foot down and corral the family for a rare celestial event where their lives are thrown into a tailspin. Every single one of them, down to the baby and the family dog, swap places and will have to confront their differences in order to work together to set things right.
During their interview, Cuomo and Bell share why they were nervous stepping on set for Family Switch, how they worked together to deliver their performances, and reveal a whole scene cut from the film. They talks about the OG bodyswap movie and who in the music industry they'd most like to trade places with for a day. The pair also discusses scoring for 2021's The Space Between, their feelings on AI within the industry, and the upcoming 30th anniversary of Weezer (Blue Album) and what they've got planned. Finally, they also reveal they wrote a sequel to "Undone (The Sweater Song)" titled "CEO."
