Plot Summary

In the year 2035, humanity faces an unimaginable horrorโan ancient and highly intelligent species of mutant insects has emerged from deep beneath the Earthโs surface. For centuries, they remained hidden, evolving in the shadows. But now, climate shifts and reckless human drilling have disturbed their hives, unleashing The Swarmโa nightmarish force of insectoid creatures that grow, adapt, and multiply at an unstoppable rate.
At the center of the chaos is Dr. Samuel Hayes (Jake Gyllenhaal), a disgraced entomologist who had long warned of the dangers of disturbing natureโs balance. When his former colleague, Dr. Emily Carter (Anya Taylor-Joy), uncovers shocking evidence of the insectsโ hive intelligence, she realizes that humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain.
As major cities fall under siege, the worldโs last hope lies in a desperate military operation led by Colonel Daniel Graves (Cillian Murphy) and Lt. Zoe Harper (Letitia Wright). Their mission: infiltrate the insectsโ underground nests and destroy The Queen, the terrifying overlord controlling the Swarm. But what if the Queen isnโt the true mastermind?
As the war for survival rages on, humanity will come to a horrifying realizationโThe Swarm isnโt just fighting backโฆ itโs learning. And the real threat isnโt the insects themselves, but the entity controlling them: a mysterious Hive Mind (Bill Skarsgรฅrd), an intelligence that may be far older and deadlier than mankind ever imagined.
