Dark secrets, a battle of wills, and twists and turns abound in The Housemaid. The upcoming thriller starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried debuted its first trailer today. Now, you can get a closer look at this page-to-screen adaptation.
Check out the trailer for The Housemaid below.
The Housemaid is based on the book of the same name by author Freida McFadden. The story follows Millie (Sweeney), a young woman who accepts a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Winchester family. However, it soon becomes clear that the picture-perfect home is anything but.
Here’s the full synopsis from Lionsgate:
“The Housemaid is a wildly entertaining thriller starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, based on the best-selling book. From director Paul Feig, the film plunges audiences into a twisted world where perfection is an illusion, and nothing is as it seems. Trying to escape her past, Millie (Sweeney) accepts a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Nina (Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar). But what begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something far more dangerous — a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power. Behind the Winchesters’ closed doors lies a world of shocking twists that will leave you guessing until the very end.”
Paul Feig (A Simple Favor) directs The Housemaid from Rebecca Sonnenshine’s adapted screenplay. In addition to Seyfried and Sweeney, the film also stars Brandon Sklenar, Michele Morrone, and Elizabeth Perkins.
The Housemaid premieres in theaters December 19. Until then, check back to THS for more updates on the latest movies.
