Zintrus, the family-friendly adventure comedy starring Carter Jenkins, Austin Butler, and Ashley Boettcher, lands on Netflix on October 23, 2026. The film follows kids who must defend their home from tiny alien invaders.
The Pearson family gathers at a sprawling countryside estate for a vacation meant to bring them closer together. A strange storm soon erupts, and several unidentified objects hammer into the roof.
The kids discover that these devices are carrying small aliens bent on conquering the planet. With technology that can bend adults to their will, the youngest members of the family are the only ones who can organize the resistance.
Released in France in 2009, Les Zintrus, whose original title is Aliens in the Attic, is directed by John Schultz from a screenplay by Adam F. Goldberg and Mark Burton. The film stars Carter Jenkins, Austin Butler, Ashley Boettcher, Ashley Tisdale, Robert Hoffman and Kevin Nealon.
The tale reimagines the vacation home as a miniature battleground, with kids forced to act without their parents knowing. The aliens’ voices are provided by J.K. Simmons and Thomas Haden Church.
While the story unfolds in Michigan, filming took place in New Zealand. This 1 hour and 27 minute fantasy adventure is geared mainly toward younger audiences and makes for a family-friendly viewing option.
Les Zintrus will stream on Netflix starting October 23, 2026.
