Family Leave's ensemble cast will also include Matthias Schweighöfer, Bashir Salahuddin, Ilia Isorelýs Paulino, Fortune Feimster, Xosha Roquemore, Paul Scheer, Andrew Bachelor, Pete Holmes, Naomi Ekperigin, Dan Finnerty, Cyrus Arnold and Vanessa Carrasco alongside young stars Emma Myers and Brady Noon, according to Variety.
The film follows a family who experience a supernatural body switch on the most important day of each family member's life, forcing the family to come together to secure each member's promotion, college interview, record deal and soccer tryout, according to the outlet.
Meanwhile, Moreno stars in her new movie 80 for Brady, teaming up with costars Jane Fonda, Sally Field and Lily Tomlin as their characters embark on a trip to see Tom Brady play in the 2017 Super Bowl, the year the now-retired quarterback led the New England Patriots to a victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
During the 80 for Brady cast's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote the movie in January, Moreno discussed a scene in the movie in which she "got turned on."
"I simply want to say that my favorite scene in the movie takes place in the locker room where the guys are," Moreno told host Jimmy Kimmel. "You know, [Rob Gronkowski], all these guys."

"I entered the room, and it's a real locker room, and I swear to God, like, in seconds I got turned on," she continued, making Kimmel, 55, and his audience laugh.
"You're saying a room full of naked men excited you for some reason?" Kimmel asked.
"Not only excited me, I kept grabbing myself," she added, this time making her costars laugh too. "I kept saying to myself, 'What is wrong with you? You are 90!' I'm 91 now. ... Then I thought, 'There's nothing wrong with that.' "
