Jennifer Garner to star in Netflix's 'Family Leave'
Washington [US], February 18 (ANI): American actor Jennifer Garner is teaming up with Netflix again, this time for an upcoming family comedy film titled 'Family Leave'.

Garner, who is widely known for films like '13 Going on 30' and 'Dallas Buyers Club', will both star in and bankroll 'Family Leave'.
The story will follow 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.
