A supernatural twist forces Britain’s straight-laced Prime Minister and his glamorous movie-star sister to swap bodies, making each navigate the other’s public and private chaos—while the world’s watching. Sir Oliver “Ollie” Hadley is 43, the dashing, slightly overworked Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. While juggling Parliament, four nations, and a bustling home life, he’s also under constant scrutiny from the media. His younger sister, Isabella “Izzy” Hadley, 33, is a British actress and global fashion icon dominating Hollywood’s A-list. Her life is a carousel of premieres, endorsements, and romantic escapades with both dashing men and beautiful women. After an unexplained incident involving a centuries-old family relic, they’re forced to switch bodies. Suddenly, “Ollie” is in LA dodging paparazzi and agents, while “Izzy” has to run a country, wrangle MPs, and keep up with a wife and two kids. The siblings must survive each other’s lives, maintain their public facades, and learn what it really means to be in each other’s (designer) shoes.
