Plot Summary

In the year 2035, humanity faces an unimaginable horror—an ancient and highly intelligent species of mutant insects has emerged from deep beneath the Earth’s surface. For centuries, they remained hidden, evolving in the shadows. But now, climate shifts and reckless human drilling have disturbed their hives, unleashing The Swarm—a 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 nature’s balance. When his former colleague, Dr. Emily Carter (Anya Taylor-Joy), uncovers shocking evidence of the insects’ hive intelligence, she realizes that humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain.

As major cities fall under siege, the world’s 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 insects’ underground nests and destroy The Queen, the terrifying overlord controlling the Swarm. But what if the Queen isn’t the true mastermind?

As the war for survival rages on, humanity will come to a horrifying realization—The Swarm isn’t just fighting back… it’s learning. And the real threat isn’t the insects themselves, but the entity controlling them: a mysterious Hive Mind (Bill Skarsgård), an intelligence that may be far older and deadlier than mankind ever imagined.
