Don't Breathe is a recent example of a surprising switcheroo where the "villain" becomes the "hero" in the sequel.

James Bond technically hasn’t done this at all. They change actors, but they’re all playing the same character.

That is, unless you subscribe to the fan theory that “James Bond” is an alias shared by multiple 00 agents.

Genre switch and hero switch. James Cameron likes to shake things up

watch it back to back with Terminator 1. The Terminator is the bad guy and the human is the good guy.

in T2. The Terminator is the good guy but we don't know till he saves the kid. The more human looking time traveler is actually the evil Terminator sent back to kill the kid.
